Perhaps choose the tangy-sweet Elves Behaving Badly, with warming flavours of marmalade and cranberries. Or would you prefer the perfectly spiced Not-So-Silent Night? If you’re looking for something sparkly to help you celebrate, The Tipsy Reindeer might be your choice. With a range of flavours to choose from – and some low and no alcohol options – our Christmas drinks are the ideal accompaniment to a mince pie (or two, we won’t tell!).
Wish you were on board this festive season? Bring a little bit of Cunard Christmas to your home with our special cocktails. With the perfect balance of fruity flavours, these drinks are sure to be a crowd-pleaser for you and yours this year.
Elves behaving badly
Ingredients:
Ocho Blanco Tequila – 50ml
Cointreau Liqueur - 15ml
Orange Marmalade - 1 teaspoon
Lime Juice – 25ml
Cranberry Juice – 25ml
Method:
Add the lime Juice, cranberry juice, and marmalade to the cocktail shaker, and give it a good stir to dissolve the marmalade.
Add the tequila and Cointreau.
Top up with ice (a few cubes or a handful – drinker’s choice!)
Shake-shake-shake it up.
Fine strain the drink into a glass – a martini glass if you have one.
Garnish with a little candy floss on the edge of the glass and serve.
Or, for any non-drinkers, try the alcohol-free version. Simply follow the same steps as above, replacing the tequila and Cointreau with agave and Triple Sec syrup . . .
