Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Christmas is less than six weeks away, and as the big day draws closer, shopping trolleys are filling up with advent calendars, mulled wine and fancy biscuits. But nothing quite says Christmas like the seasonal treats at Marks & Spencer, and we’ve got our eyes on something extra special this year. The new mince pie liqueur has bottled up the flavours of Christmas and is just as joyful as the beloved Christmas ad.
In recent years, M&S’s seasonal light-up gins and flavoured liqueurs have become somewhat of a festive staple. Last year, there were marmalade gin, berry vodka and stollen rum-flavoured liqueurs, all three flying off the shelves in the countdown to the big day.
Because Christmas really is a time for magic, M&S’s mince pie liqueur comes in a touch-sensitive light-up bottle. Owing to the previous popularity, we really do think this one will be a hit, so keep reading for how you can get your hands on it before it sells out.
