Capital Christmas cocktail is an Old Fashioned classic
A Christmas cocktail in the capital is just what the doctor ordered this festive season.
With Christmas just around the corner, a selection of fine festive cocktails has been prepared for winter drinking.
Gingerbread Old Fashioned has been created by R&B Distillers and Usquabae Whisky Bar in Edinburgh.
Gingerbread is the scent of yuletide, bringing festive joy to everything from quaint iced house to cinnamon dusted lattes.
Craft whisky makers R&B Distillers have teamed up with Usquabae to create a seasonal take on the classic Old Fashioned.
