There's a Christmas Cheer winter warmer drinks trail around Bridport (and it looks amazing)

As part of the Christmas Cheer celebrations, bartenders and business owners have created special festive drinks to add an extra bit of magic to the evening. 

Everyone enjoys a traditional mulled wine, but this trail - which includes candy cane spritzers, butter beer and even a little something for your pet - is truly special.

Take a photo of your favourite drink and post on social media mentioning the venue’s name and #bridportcheer2018
