Mulled Wine Flask - Traditional Spiced Christmas Wine (Serves 24)

Route Catering's Mulled Wine Flask delivers authentic Christmas cheer in a practical thermal flask that keeps your festive drinks properly hot for hours. This self-serve format gives you complete control over timing and service style—pour generous measures during afternoon celebrations, offer top-ups throughout longer events, or simply place it on a table and let colleagues help themselves. No cart, no service team, just quality spiced wine ready when you need it.

What's Included:

• Thermal flask containing 24 servings of traditional mulled wine (5% ABV)
• Premium red wine infused with fresh orange, star anise, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, and sugar
• Traditional Christmas spicing balancing warmth without overwhelming the wine's character
• High-quality thermal flask maintaining optimal serving temperature for several hours
• Practical pour spout design enabling easy self-service without spills or complications
• Sufficient quantity for intimate team gatherings or as supplementary drinks for larger events

Perfect For:

• Smaller team Christmas gatherings where full pop-up service isn't necessary
• Afternoon celebrations needing festive drinks without additional staffing requirements
• Adding Christmas atmosphere to existing catering packages or office parties
• Budget-conscious events wanting authentic mulled wine without service premiums
• Flexible timing situations where self-serve format provides greater control

Self-Serve Flexibility: This flask format works beautifully for teams who prefer handling their own service or want mulled wine available throughout extended celebrations. The thermal technology means you're not racing against cooling temperatures—pour the first cup at 2pm and the last at 5pm with confidence both will be properly warm.

Practical Festive Addition: Mulled wine doesn't need elaborate presentation to work its Christmas magic. Sometimes a quality flask on the table does the job perfectly, especially when paired with Route Catering's sandwich platters, graze tables, or individual meals. It's the kind of practical solution that makes sense for teams focused on celebration rather than catering logistics.

Mulled Cider Flask - Traditional Spiced Apple Cider (Serves 24)

Route Catering's Mulled Cider Flask offers a quintessentially British alternative to mulled wine, celebrating the apple orchards and cider traditions that have shaped English festive drinking for centuries. This warming spiced cider arrives in a thermal flask designed to maintain perfect drinking temperature for hours, giving your team the flexibility to enjoy proper festive drinks at their own pace without rushing or worrying about cold cups.

What's Included:

• Thermal flask containing 24 generous servings of traditional mulled cider (approximately 5% ABV)

• Professional-grade thermal flask keeping drinks properly hot throughout your celebration
• Easy-pour design allowing smooth self-service without mess or fuss
• Perfect quantity for cosy team gatherings or supplementing larger Christmas events

Perfect For:

• Teams preferring cider's lighter, fruitier profile over red wine's richness

• Mixed beverage offerings giving guests genuine choice between wine and cider
• Budget-friendly festive celebrations wanting authentic seasonal drinks without service costs
• Longer events where the thermal flask's staying power prevents constant temperature worries

British Cider Heritage: Whilst mulled wine gets most of the festive attention, spiced cider has equally deep roots in British Christmas traditions. This flask celebrates that heritage, offering apple-loving teams a warming alternative that feels just as festive whilst providing lighter, more refreshing drinking than heavier wine-based options.

Thermal Technology Advantage: The real beauty of flask service lies in its forgiveness. Start serving at lunch, continue through afternoon meetings, or keep it available throughout evening celebrations—the thermal insulation does its job regardless of your schedule.
