A young Scots boy was left in a fizz when his 'one in a million' can of Irn-Bru poured clear.
Jarvis Morrison Sweeney, from Dunfermline, sat down to enjoy a can of the famous orange-coloured Scottish drink yesterday and was shocked at what was inside.
The 11-year-old said: "I thought to myself 'what the hell is going on here?'
"I was surprised and confused.
"It looked like sparkling water. I still had a drink of it though because I wanted to see what it tasted like."
Jayden and his mum Alana Maxwell said the drink smelled like Irn-Bru, it tasted like Irn-Bru, but it certainly did not look like the popular Scots drink.
Alana, who runs the Auld Mill House Hotel in Dunfermline, said: "I had just bought the case of Sugar Free Irn-Bru from Bookers Cash and Carry a few days before so I knew it was definitely still in date.
"We couldn't believe it when we seen it. Jarvis was loving it. It gave us some much needed entetainment.
"All these years I've thought Irn-Bru got it's famous colouring from girders and now this has happened.
"Is it really just colouring they add? The mind boggles."
Irn-Bru bosses said young Jarvis' rare find was a one in a million can and have offered to send him some freebies for his confusion

A spokesperson from Irn-Bru said: "Young Jarvis has a one in a million can right there - it's very rare to get a clear can of IRN-BRU.
"We'll be sending Javis' family a few cases of IRN-BRU Sugar Free to thank them for telling us."
