It’s impossible to go wrong with a bottle of Veuve there’s just something about this silky sparkling wine that ignites instant excitement in us. This vibrant rosé champagne is juicy and oozing with notes of wild strawberry, raspberry, cherry, grapefruit zest, and peony. It’s easily the most pricey bottle on the list, but hey, this night only comes once a year.
For all of 2020’s shortcomings, there remains an infinite number of bubbles for ringing in a more hopeful, optimistic 2021. To stock up on bubbly before the ball drops, you can head to your local BC Liquor Store.
This is the Christmas season to shake things up (literally).
We owe it to ourselves to have the most fun holiday season possible, filled with trying new things and creativity in the kitchen. Pouring a glass of wine or a frosty beer is a solid go-to, but you can do that any day of the year. Winter is the time for cozy cocktails, so this year in Vancouver, shake some up.
Northern Keep Vodka is a uniquely premium craft spirit made using the finest ingredients grown in Canada. Created by the artisans at Alberta Distillers (recently named the Distillery of the Decade at the Canadian Whisky Awards), Northern Keep Vodka offers the comforting flavours of the festive season with hints of citrus and light spice.

However, for the Nelson’s local Salvation Army Christmas is make-it-or-break-it time.

If there’s anything we’re looking forward to during the holidays, it’s celebrating.
We’ll have to safely do so in our own homes, but that comes with its own set of perks. We get to put on classic records, break out the board games, dust off our holiday recipes, and rediscover some of our favourite sips of the season (Baileys, we see you).
BC Liquor Stores have a wide selection of holiday favourites to celebrate with this season. Whether you’re looking forward to a favourite bottle you haven’t had in a long time, hoping to make a new tradition, or planning to surprise someone with the perfect gift under the tree (or at their doorstep), BCL has you covered.
As the days become increasingly absorbed by the night sky, the air cools, and layers of powdery snow begin to cover the ground, it’s that time of year when we turn inwards.
Whether or not you find comfort in the season changing may depend entirely on if you’re a fan of the wintry months or, better yet, on where you live. But if there’s anything we can all agree on, it’s that cocktails are a great way to savour the seasons. With that, it’s time to amend our roster with a lineup that reflects the snug winter months.
