Warm Up Your Winter
With long, dark nights, a winter tipple is the perfect evening treat. Hand-crafted in
small batches by Heart of Suffolk Distillery, Ivy’s Gin has a warming taste with its
delicious clove and cranberry undertones. The subtle spices, alongside the 10
carefully chosen botanicals, make Ivy’s Gin an ideal winter pick-me-up. Serve with
cranberries and juniper berries and premium tonic for a festive twist!
Priced at £39 for a 70cl bottle, or £15 for a 20cl

A Taste of Asia
There’s no need to jet off to Thailand this winter, enjoy the best of its cuisine on
your doorstep in Cambridge. Leading Thai restaurant chain, Giggling Squid, will be

& Pepper Squid or creamy Massaman Curry!

A Sweet Makeover
You may notice Cadbury Heroes are looking a little different this season; packaging
has undergone a makeover to celebrate its 20th anniversary. The sharing tin has
been redesigned to resemble a birthday cake and signals the start of a campaign,
called ‘Families Reunited’, which sees real parents going to extreme lengths to learn
new skills that will help them reconnect with their teenage kids. Coming from the
award-winning director team behind First Dates, it’s not one to be missed!
Cadbury Heroes limited edition tin RRP £9.99.

Fast-casual Cali-Mexican restaurant Tortilla has opened in Cambridge, adding to the
already diverse choice of cuisine in the city. Located at 18 Market Hill, Tortilla is your
local burrito and taco joint, offering authentic California-style Mexican food to eat in
or take away. Fillings are prepared fresh in-store daily and with a fully customisable
menu, there’s a dish to suit all tastes.
