One Up

It might be a tad too early for that Mariah Carey Christmas song.

But thankfully, it’s not too early to be thinking about playing that Mariah Carey Christmas song (although see if you can hold off until the 1st of December).

It’s also not too early to be planning your Christmas cocktail session either.

This Big Deal from One Up in the Merchant City takes care of it all for you, offering festive cocktails for two (or mulled drinks) plus nibbles to share, all in a very ritzy venue.

Very merry cocktails for two

If you and your other half (or best friend) don’t already have an annual tradition of heading out for festive cocktails, then it’s high time that you remedied that.

This Big Deal which would make a fab post-Christmas shopping reward, so after you’ve braved the crowds, you can settle down in One Up and clink glasses in style.

The offer includes a choice of festive cocktail, mulled wine or mulled cider each, plus nibbles to share. It is available seven days from 1st to 30th December.

You can expect the following festive drinks:

Peppermint bellini; Prosecco with peppermint syrup

The Grinch; a mix of apple and melon liqueur with apple juice and sour mix

Candy cane cosmo; a mix of raspberry vodka, triple sec and cranberry with a dash of peppermint

Festive spiced espresso martini; Kahlua, vanilla vodka and cinnamon syrup with espresso and sugar

Mulled wine & cider, One Up’s secret house recipe

Perfect festive venue

One Up on Royal Exchange Square has a relaxed vibe and cool décor, making it a popular choice for drinks, dining and dancing. The sparkling chandeliers and shimmery lilac lighting create a plush setting for special festive drinks.

One Up likes to keep the ambience stylish, so smart casual dress is required (so maybe dig out those sparkly Santa earrings and Rudolph socks).

Happy cocktails fans

One Up has been earning great reviews from 5pm customers. Here is a snippet of one:

‘Fantastic catch up with friends… good value. Service was great.’

Get into the Christmas spirit

Alongside advent calendars and watching Scrooged for the gazillionth time, festive cocktails should be an essential part of anyone’s Christmas countdown.

So why not snap up today’s Big Deal and give yourself a ‘Santastic’ treat to look forward to this December?
