At Bargain Booze, we’re here to make your Christmas and New Year celebrations unforgettable; without breaking the bank.
Whether you’re playing host, searching for the perfect bottle to gift, or planning a chilled night in with something low and no, we’ve got your festive drinks deals, stocking fillers, and party essentials all wrapped up.
So, grab your Santa hat and your shopping list; let’s toast to a season of good company, great value, and even better drinks.
Mix & Match Magic: Two 70cl Spirits for £30
Now this is what we call a Christmas miracle.
Our Mix & Match Spirits Deal lets you grab any two 70cl bottles for just £30; so you can stock up your home bar or sort out the ultimate gifting duo in one go.
Think Captain Morgan’s Spiced Gold for the rum fans, Southern Comfort for something smooth and warming, or go classic with Smirnoff Vodka or Gordon’s Gin. With plenty more to choose from, this deal makes it easy to pick, mix, and pour something for everyone; whether you’re serving cocktails, gifting bottles, or hosting your annual “one drink turns into three” party.
And because we’re all about value that sparkles, there are even more spirits and gift sets in store to help you nail that festive shopping list early.
Wines That Win Christmas
Some things never change; and a great bottle of wine is still the easiest (and most appreciated) Christmas gift around. From festive dinner tables to quiet evenings by the tree, these bottles are your perfect pour.
- Septima Malbec – £8.99
Rich, bold, and full of dark fruit flavour; perfect for roast beef, hearty stews, or gifting to that red wine lover who “only drinks Argentinian.” - Diablo Chardonnay – £8.99
Smooth, creamy, and full-bodied with just the right touch of oak. Pair it with turkey, salmon, or a Boxing Day cheese board and watch everyone nod approvingly. - Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc – £8.99
Crisp, citrusy, and refreshingly bright; this New Zealand favourite always brings a little sunshine to grey December days.
Each of these bottles hits the sweet spot between affordable and impressive; because great taste shouldn’t come with a Grinch-sized price tag.
Bubbles for New Year’s Cheers
New Year’s Eve isn’t New Year’s Eve without bubbles; and this year’s lineup is ready to make your midnight sparkle.
- Bollinger Special Cuvée 75cl – a true classic. Elegant, rich and beautifully balanced, it’s the bottle that says “we made it through another year!”
- Kylie Minogue Prosecco 75cl – light, floral, and just a little bit fabulous (much like Kylie herself). Perfect for toasting your resolutions; or toasting the fact that you haven’t made any.
- Corvezzo Organic Italian Rosé 75cl – a new favourite that brings a fresh, fruity pop to the table. Certified organic, vegan-friendly and effortlessly stylish; it’s your go-to for pink fizz with purpose.
Whether you’re hosting the countdown party or heading to a friend’s, these bottles bring the fizz, flair, and festive glow your celebration deserves.
Beers That Belong in Every Fridge
When the house is full, the fridge becomes prime real estate. And whether it’s family popping in or a full-on festive bash, you’ll need beers that keep everyone happy.
- Beavertown Neck Oil 10 x 330ml – New in Store
A smooth, hoppy pale ale that’s easy to drink and big on flavour; perfect for craft beer fans who want something a little special. - Coors 18 x 330ml, Birra Moretti 18 x 330ml, and Peroni 18 x 330ml – all ready to chill and share.
Ideal for parties, football marathons, or those “just one more round” kind of nights.
So, before the fridge fills with leftover turkey and mystery tubs of trifle, make space for the good stuff; because cold beer and warm company are what Christmas weekends are really about.
Stocking Fillers & New Arrivals
Small bottles, big impact; the real secret to winning Christmas morning.
- Jim Beam 20cl – smooth, oaky, and the perfect size for bourbon fans.
- Lamb’s Spiced 35cl – a warming winter favourite that pairs perfectly with cola or ginger beer.
Pop them in stockings, gift bags, or your own drinks trolley (we won’t judge). These miniature marvels are also great for spontaneous toasts and last-minute gifting; the kind of thoughtful “I totally planned this” moment we all need in December.
Cocktail of the Month: Espress Yo-self
A Christmas cocktail that’s equal parts indulgent and easy to make; meet the Espress Yo-self. It’s a warm, chocolatey twist on a winter classic, and yes, it’s as good as it sounds.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon hot chocolate powder
- Half a cup of milk
- 15ml Stoli Vanilla Vodka
- 15ml Tia Maria
- Mini marshmallows & whipped cream to garnish
Recipe
- Gently heat the milk and stir in the hot chocolate powder.
- Add the vanilla vodka and Tia Maria.
- Pour into your favourite mug.
- Top with whipped cream and mini marshmallows.
It’s rich, sweet, and slightly boozy; the perfect drink for present wrapping, movie nights, or sipping while pretending you haven’t eaten half the Quality Street tin.
Hosting Made Easy: Mixers, Soft Drinks & Low & No
Even the best hosts need backup — and The Girl from Bargain Booze knows that having plenty of soft drinks, mixers, and low & no options is the key to keeping every guest happy this Christmas.
Whether it’s designated drivers, mocktail lovers, or those pacing themselves through a long Christmas Eve, she recommends stocking up on these must-have favourites:
- Fever-Tree Mixers – from tonic to ginger ale, perfect for elevating any pour.
- Coca-Cola & Pepsi multipacks – ideal for mixing or enjoying on their own.
- Corona Cero 4 x 330ml – crisp, refreshing, and alcohol-free.
- Gordon’s 0% London Dry & Pink Gin – all the botanicals, none of the buzz.
- Not Guilty Wines – the wine experience without the aftermath.
Because good hosting isn’t just about pouring drinks; it’s about making sure everyone gets to raise a glass.
And if you realise you’ve forgotten something (it happens!), don’t worry — many Bargain Booze stores are open late over Christmas, and most are even open on Christmas Day for those last-minute essentials.
