Morrisons Has Launched A Shimmery Chocolate Orange Gin For Christmas

Like a Terry's Chocolate Orange, but better.

Gin lovers, assemble. Morrisons has created a shimmery Chocolate Orange Gin Liqueur - and it's basically Christmas in a bottle.

Playing on the classic festive flavour combo of chocolate and orange, the festive tipples combines notes of fresh zesty citrus and rich, velvety-smooth chocolate

A touch of bronze and gold metallic shimmer takes the gin to new levels of festive.

We have a vision of Father Christmas enjoying this next to a crackling fire along with a couple of mince pies.

Mike Kenny, Morrisons Spirits Buying Manager, said: "We know our customers are on the lookout for chocolate and orange combinations over the festive period, so we're excited to be able to offer this exciting new gin liqueur."

If the richness of chocolate isn't for you, Morrisons has also created three other fruity Christmas-inspired gin liqueurs including Plum, Maple & Cinnamon, and Passionfruit and Orange & Rhubarb

Beyond Morrisons, there are plenty of creative Christmas gins on the market this year.

Quirky gifting company Firebox is serving This Gin Tastes Like Christmas, priced at £25.99. Flavoured with spicy cinnamon, cloves, sweet vanilla and clementines, it lives up to its name, and contains a drop of juniper for an extra kick.

Or try Aldi's Spiced Apple and Winter Berry Gin, £19.99, a rich and fruity festive blend of fresh apple undertones, woody cinnamon and bursts of berry flavours.

Simply add a splash of your favourite tonic for a wintery spin on a G&T. Or, in the case of Morrison's gin liqueur, serve neat with plenty of ice - rather like a Bailey's.

You can even add a dash of these Yule Tide gins to your mulled wine for an extra hit of festive spice.

Morrisons 50cl gin liqueur bottles have an ABV of 20 per cent and are available in the majority of stores now. They are available on offer at £10 until 24th November, after which they will cost £12.
