Taken back by the "bargain" price of the alcoholic beverage, Lisa joked she "might move to Edinburgh soon" and encouraged her 300,000 TikTok followers to pay a visit.

She said: "Guys, so I've just come back from Edinburgh, I was working there with Joe for a couple of days. It was absolutely beautiful.

"The architecture, there's a castle, they've got Murrayfield rugby stadium. Everyone was so super nice. They had loads of lovely shops, the Christmas market - it was amazing.

"But the best thing for me about it was when you go into a bar and you ask for a prosecco. It's not like London, they pour the biggest measures ever.
