B&M has launched its new festive drinks for Christmas 2022, and there's a common theme with both.
Designed for 'creating the perfect centerpiece' for any festive table, the two new drinks include a gin and a liqueur. The exclusive Whitley Neil Mince Pie Gin is priced at £19.99 for a 70cl bottle and has the flavour of a classic Christmas dessert.
It includes aromas of mince pies with citrus and hints of juniper. Described as having a 'sweet taste on the palate' the gin features a taste of raisins, cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg all creating that classic Christmassy taste.

Mince Pie Gin Fizz
- 25ml Whitley Neill Mince Pie Gin
- 50ml Cranberry juice
- Champagne or Prosecco to top up.
- Shake the Whitley Neill Mince Pie gin and cranberry with ice in a shaker. Strain and pour into a coupe. Top up with chilled Champagne or Prosecco. Garnish with raspberries.
Mince Pie Martini
- 50ml Whitley Neill Mince Pie gin
- 10ml Vermouth
- Add the gin and vermouth to a shaker with plenty of ice. Shake, then strain and pour into a Martini glass. Garnish with orange rind.
The second new B&M festive tipple is the 'Sixpence Christmas Pudding Liqueur', which is described as 'luxurious' and the 'ultimate gift'. The drink is a rich Christmas liqueur with a golden shimmer boasting notes of apple, Christmas spices, candied fruit, vanilla, and caramel.
It's said to be 'the perfect after-dinner piece' to enjoy with a mince pie or Christmas pudding. Priced at £13.99 for the 50cl bottle, B&M is expecting the drink to sell out fast.
Shoppers can find the festive drinks at their local B&M store.
