Aldi is selling gingerbread and caramel and hazelnut cream liqueurs this Christmas
ALDI has given its own version of Bailey's a festive makeover with two new flavours that taste of gingerbread and caramel and hazelnut.
The discounter's Ballycastle range of cream liqueurs is a take on Bailey's but costs just a fraction of the price.
Just in time for Christmas, the gingerbread cream liqueur contains a blend of spiced ginger and fresh cream.
While the caramel and hazelnut flavour is sweet to taste, thanks to the caramel, but with a strong hint of nuts.
We've already tasted both the new flavours and we can confirm they are deliciously creamy.
And at £9.99 for a 70cl bottle, they both cost £2.01 less than what Bailey's is currently retailed at across UK supermarkets.
Here's how to cut the cost of your grocery shop
SAVING on your shop can make a big difference to your wallet. Here are some tips from Hannah Maundrell, editor of Money.co.uk, about how you can cut the cost of your shopping bills:
- Write yourself a list – Only buy items that you need. If it isn’t on your list, don’t put it in the trolley
- Create a budget – Work out a weekly budget for your food shopping
- Never shop hungry – you are far more likely to buy more food if your tummy is rumbling
- Don’t buy pre-chopped veggies or fruit – The extra they’ll charge for chopping can be eye watering
- Use social media – follow your favourite retailers to find out about the latest deals
- Be disloyal – You may want to go to different stores to find the best bargains
- Check the small print – It’s always worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision as a bigger box won’t necessarily mean you get more
- Use your loyalty cards – Don’t be afraid to sign up to them all. They all work slightly differently – work out what bonus suits you better and remember to trade in your points for additional rewards
Sadly we can't see either flavour for sale on the Aldi website just yet so you'll need to visit your nearest store to find one.
Aldi has around 830 shops in the UK and you can use the to locate your closest one.
But you'll need to be quick as the boozy treats are only available until the end of this year.
Each new flavour has a 15 per cent alcohol by volume content (ABV) so as always, remember to drink responsibly and be .
This is slightly less than Bailey's, which has a 17 per cent ABV content.
Aldi recommends serving their Ballycastle range neat, with a bit of ice, after dinner.
In case you missed it, Aldi yesterday announced it's bringing back its massive SIX litre methuselah bottle of Prosecco.
This isn't the only festive drink the retailer's launched, as Aldi is also selling a shimmery candy cane gin liqueur for Christmas.
In more Aldi news, the discounter is planning to open 55 new branches inside the M25 as it grows the number of "Local" stores in London.
