M&S has launched its largest-ever festive drinks collection, featuring decaf espresso martini cocktails, alcohol-free bucks fizz to tap into the ‘zebra striping’ drinking trend and stylish bottles of crémant.
Whether you’re ready or not, Christmas is just around the corner. Sainsbury’s has already detailed its 300+ portfolio, including a lemon tiramisu, vegan turkey, and a Jaffa Cake-inspired dark rum.
At Sainsbury’s, there’s also an eyebrow-raising apple crumble sandwich to pick up on your lunch break, whilst treats from Waitrose include a three-bird pie, a cheky chocolate robin cake, and rich potato dauphinoise.
Marks & Spencer has also detailed its Christmas 2026 range: pistachio muddles, gingerbread and white chocolate cookies have arrived in store, along with snacking tins like the Gimme S’More Munch and the Big Mix Chocolate.

Now, M&S has shared info regarding its Xmas drinks selection, with BBC Good Food reporting that more than 100 new beverages are launching in-store and online.
M&S Christmas Cocktails
Become a mixologist without the fuss with The Marksologist range, featuring canned margaritas with blanco tequila, salted caramel espresso martinis, peach bourbon smashes, and gin and ginger mules.
Those sensitive to caffeine can also pick up a decaf version of a classic espresso martini cocktail.
Pre-mixed glass cocktail bottles on offer include negroni, vodka martini and old fashioned made with Twin Stallions bourbon.
Alcohol free range
Anyone who doesn’t drink booze is being directed to peruse M&S’ alcohol-free range this winter.
First up there’s a 0.5 percent version of its Buck’s Fizz and a clementine and cranberry variant, plus a red and rosé mulled wine.

There’s also an alcohol-free sloe fizz made with white wine and rich forest fruit flavours, a festive and fruity winter ale, and pre-mixed mocktails, including a pina colada and aperitivo spritz.
Classic spirits and liquors
This year, M&S shoppers can pick up a small batch of jersey royal potato vodka made by Royal Mash; twice distilled single malt Scotch whisky; zesty 16 Acres lemon gin; triple sec liqueur; apricot brandy liqueur and limoncello.
Those who love Irish cream are also in for a treat, with new flavours including espresso, chocolate and clementine, chocolate and cherry, and vegan coconut and chocolate arriving in store.
Don’t forget, outside of M&S, you can pick up bottles of Baileys x Terry’s Chocolate Orange, too.
Beer and cider
New for 2026 is the Siren chocolate porter with notes of cacao nibs, vanilla and biscuity malts.
There’s also an alcoholic version of the festive and fruity winter ale, plus a Devon-made winter cider.

The latter blends apples from Sandford Orchards with a splash of clementine and festive spices, according to the website.
Wine
30 bottles of English wine are available at M&S throughout the Christmas period, including sparkling varieties and sups from vineyards across Norfolk and Cornwall.
Crémant de bourgogne rosé and blanquette de limoux are also available.
According to an M&S report, sales of crémant—made similarly to Champagne, but from different regions at a lower price—are up by 160 percent compared to two years ago.
It’s therefore advised that you get your bottles stocked sooner rather than later.
