jirble

This seems like another appropriate word for the festive season, pronounced like the ratty animal:

jirble (Scot) vt and vi to pour splashingly or unsteadily. Chambers, 1998

That'll be me tomorrow, jirbling the brandy onto the Christmas pudding, onto the plate, into my mouth... I'm just following Santa's lead.
