Brothers-in-law Alexander Armstrong and Giles Coren front the searching for the perfect Christmas beverages in The 12 Drinks of Christmas, due to air on BBC Two later this year.

The pair will spend an hour deciding on the best drinks for the season, including the best Christmas Eve cocktail, wine to serve with lunch, a wassail punch and the ultimate eggnog. Coren says 'We're seeking answers to the big cultural questions such as "eggnog or mulled wine, dear?" and asking "what would Jesus have drunk?"'.
