With Christmas just around the corner, we could all do with a helping hand in spreading some festive cheer. Why not offer something a little different to your friends and family this Christmas by making them a cocktail with a festive twist?

Featuring Ketel One Citroen, a festive spice syrup and topped with prosecco,’The Reindeer’ is sure to add some sparkle, celebration and Christmas warmth to any festive get together.

Served in a champagne flute, the celebratory cocktail takes its name from its quirky garnish. Topped with two sprigs of holly and a cherry, forming the antlers and nose of the reindeer – not only is’The Reindeer’ a taste sensation, it’s also the perfect showstopper for the Christmas season.
