Oz And Hugh Drink To Christmas(2009)

Oz and Hugh Drink to Christmas is a festive documentary series following wine expert Oz Clarke and comedian Hugh Dennis as they embark on a seasonal quest to sample and rank Britain's most iconic Christmas drinks. Traveling across the UK—from Scottish whisky distilleries and English ale breweries to the West Country's wassail traditions and Wiltshire's sloe gin producers—the pair investigate the history and authenticity of beloved holiday beverages including mulled wine, port, sherry, and snowballs. Along the way, they uncover the quirky customs and folklore behind these drinks, debunk festive myths, and discover which are genuine Christmas traditions versus marketing inventions. The journey culminates in London, where Oz and Hugh sample their findings with the public and crown Britain's first official Christmas tipple.
