Yahoo News Marks and Spencers selling light-up bottles of gin as part of Christmas 2020 range
Marks & Spencers are bringing the Christmas spirit to gin fans everywhere, offering a light-up bottle of gin liqueur as part of their festive food and drink range for 2020.
Committing to the glitz of the yuletide season, the bottle will also include a 23-carat edible gold leaf, all for £18.
You can also pick up a range of music box-style shortbread biscuit tins (for £5 a pop), an embossed glass sweet jar (filled with treats, of course) and a cute selection of Percy Pig gifts, including a giant cuddly Percy.
Christmas shoppers can choose from a larger limited edition Percy (standing at 90cm tall, for £25) or a standard sized one (slightly smaller at 60cm tall, for £15).
This week, the brand has also launched over 70 Christmas lines into its stores, including 40 gifts. Its first “All I Want For Christmas” Hamper (£150) will offer 13 of this year’s favourite M&S food and drink products, which includes a Light Globe Clementine Gin Liqueur and a magnum of Prosecco. You’ll be able to pre-order this treat later in September.
Over 100 festive treats will also be available to buy later this month on M&S’s Christmas Food To Order site.
As part of its Christmas Trends Report for this year, M&S has found that 48% of people want to begin celebrating the end of 2020. Almost a third are expecting to order more Christmas food and gifts online this year, likely due to the ongoing coronavirus crisis.
“As a nation we’ve all been through a lot this year,” M&S Food’s managing director, Stuart Machin, said. “Our customers will want to celebrate Christmas and mark the end of the year with friends and family in the best way they can.”
