Millionaire's Short Bread Cocktail Celebrates Indulgent Festive Flavors

Released in celebration of the Christmas season, Millionaire's Short Bread Cocktail celebrates the indulgent flavors of the holiday season. Sold exclusively by Marks & Spencers, this new liqueur is perfect for cozy nights at home and celebrating the festive build-up with those closest to you. According to M&S, Millionaire's Short Bread Cocktail is best shaken and served over ice. The spirit features similar qualities to Baileys but features the added benefit of being flavored with delicious shortbread.

In addition to the Millionaire's Short Bread Cocktail, M&S will also be releasing a Jaffa Cake Cocktail. This spirit also plays off traditional Christmas flavors and contains rum and orange undertones. Like the Short Bred Cocktail, the Jaffa Cake Cocktail is ready to drink and is best served over ice.
