To help celebrate Grand Marnier’s 130th anniversary, this festive bottle has been launched to help us bring in the party season in style, giving you the perfect Christmas drink.  Grand Marnier state:-

“Renowned for its distinctive flavour and character, Grand Marnier Cordon Rouge is a delicate blend of fine cognacs and distilled essence of tropical oranges with Marnier-Lapostolle’s secret touch. It is slow-aged in French oak casks to give it its incomparable roundness and subtlety, making it the ideal ingredient for Christmas drinks.”

Sounds yummy!

This bottle will look great in your drink cabinet, but even better out on display for all to see.  The bottle has been transformed into jet black, giving a huge essence of elegance to it.  This makes the sparkling ruby coloured jewel really stand out, and it will be sure to dazzle and captivate your guests with pure delight.

The Grand Marnier Ruby Edition tastes just as divine as it looks, and will be guaranteed to be your favourite tipple this winter.

Why not try mixing up a Grand Ruby?  This is a spectacular blend of Grand Marnier and cranberry juice, topped with seasonal fruit; it’s the perfect drink to share with friends over the festive season.  You will need:-

• 40ml Grand Marnier
• 120ml cranberry juice
• Crushed Ice
• Wedge of Lime

In a tall glass, pour Grand Marnier over crushed ice. Fill up with cranberry juice. Squeeze a wedge of lime above the glass and add same wedge in the glass. Garnish with seasonal mixed berries.  Delicious.

The Grand Marnier Ruby Edition is available to buy from mid-October, for £19.99, from Selfridges, Oddbins and Nicolas.
