I’m getting into the spirit of things by trading popular big-brand booze names for own-brand — and there’s some serious drops in price . . .

YUM RUM: There’s nothing like a warming spiced rum to get you feeling Christmassy, but make an own-brand switch and you’re wallet will take less of a hit. Swap Captain Morgan’s Spiced Gold, £15.50 at Sainsbury’s, for Tesco Spiced Rum, £11.87.

SAVING: £3.63

CREAM OF THE CROP: Bailey’s Irish Cream is a festive favourite, but you can save dosh while enjoying a similar taste by switching from Bailey’s

Original, £13 at Asda, To Causeway Coast Irish Country Cream, £3.95

SAVING: £9.05

LIQUEUR LIKEY: Whether you enjoy it as a sour, over ice or in a boozy hot chocolate, a sweet sip of Amaretto is sure to get you feeling festive. But, to save a few quid on the Italian bevvie, you can swap Disaronno, currently £13 at Waitrose, for Ravini Italian Amaretto, £7.99 at Aldi — it has dozens of five star reviews from amaretto drinkers online.

SAVING: £5.01

BARGAIN BOMB: Jägermeister may be an acquired taste — or the aftertaste of a wild night — but it’s a wonderful winter warmer. But maybe switch from the branded Jägermeister, £16 at Sainsbury’s, to Messer Schmitt Herbal Schnapps from Morrisons, £7.50.

SAVING: £8.50
