For a simple yet elegant way to countdown to the New Year, shake CîROC with sparkling grape juice and serve in a champagne flute with a frozen grape garnish.

Another perfect way to toast to the 'Nu' year this New Year's Eve is with Nuvo Sparkling Liqueur. This combination of premium French vodka, a touch of delicate sparkling white wine, and an infusion of passion fruit nectar will dazzle your taste buds and delight your palate. For a simple, yet shimmering seasonal toast, Nuvo sparkling liqueur is best presented in a champagne flute.

Discover a new way to enjoy Johnnie Walker Black Label by combining it with sweet vermouth, aperol, lemon juice and vanilla sugar to make the 'Midnight-Tini'. Served in a coupette glass, it's the ideal way to celebrate with friends.

A rich holiday indulgence, Baileys Original Irish Cream can be served on the rocks or as a speciality cocktail such as the festive 'Mocha-Tini', featuring Baileys blended with coffee liqueur, half and half, coconut cream and chocolate syrup.

For those looking for a little extra kick, mix Baileys with Ketel One vodka, sweet wine aperitif and sambuca to make the 'Irish Kiss'. Served strained in a chilled cocktail glass, the combination of this crisp, sophisticated Dutch vodka and classic, creamy liqueur truly highlights the best of Ireland and the Netherlands. Or, for a more traditional holiday treat, the 'White Russian' features Smirnoff vodka, shaken with Baileys and cream. Strain and serve into an ice-filled rocks glass with a sprinkle of nutmeg.

Premium Guatemalan Zacapa rum needs no mixing at all - the 'perfect serve' is in an old-fashioned glass over a pure-water ice cube.
