Christmas is an excellent excuse to experiment with some cocktail recipes.

Festive ingredients such as cinnamon, cranberry and mulled wine can be used in creative ways to create tipples with a festive twist.

The mix of orange, bourbon, cinnamon and ginger flavours, will make you feel warm and Christmassy in no time.
