Add Christmas-coladas and Christmas pudding vodka to your winter drinks rotation.
Cinnamon, spices, orange and rich berries: the flavours of Christmas are one of the highlights of the festive season, no matter how we’re consuming them. And while there’s nothing more appealing than a wintry drink, hosting our loved ones can be stressful enough without having to mix 13 different ingredients together just to create the perfect cocktail. Thankfully, there are plenty of tasty pre-mixed cocktails on the market right now that require nothing more than a nice glass and some ice.
From M&S’s Christmas-colada to a winter-spiced negroni, here are all the best fuss-free tipples for a cosy evening in.
