It’s the most wonderful time of the year, which means it’s time to serve up some wonderful Christmas cocktails and to make sure you create the absolute best – we’ve released a Christmas pudding liqueur. By infusing traditional festive fruits and botanicals, we’ve created a uniquely festive taste sensation. Classic gin botanicals with a Christmas twist are what makes our Christmas pudding liqueur the ultimate addition to the festive period.
Using our brand-new Christmas pudding liqueur, we’ve got three fantastically festive recipes for you to enjoy. Let’s get stuck in and ready for Christmas.
