Waddington’s Holiday Sour

A special cocktail for the season

Whether for entertaining friends and family or just to savour yourself with a good book on a snowy evening, it’s always fun to have a special cocktail to enjoy.

So, just in time for the holiday season, we asked Devin Hatfield of our Fine Wine & Spirits department to create a special cocktail for the season.

We weren’t surprised that the cocktail Devin designed for us is whisky based, following how much he enjoyed his recent studies at the Edinburgh Whisky Academy. Read more about Devin’s experience in Scotland.

Simple to make and sure to impress, our 2024 holiday cocktail is as delicious as it looks!
