Holiday Cocktails
Caution: not for underage consumption.
I know it looks fun and fruity, but this drink is for adults only.
You know. Mature people who like to drink fun and fruity alcoholic drinks.
Yep that’s me. Some people are wine drinkers. And some of us like drinks with garnishes.
Today’s grinch punch is perfect for a Christmas cocktail. Paired with our non-alcoholic Christmas punch and you’ve got a great line-up!
Don’t forget to add a plate of grinch cookies to your holiday table.
Ingredient Notes
- Peach Schnapps– adds a hint of flavor you’ll love
- Rum– I use the citrus rum, but any variety works
- Orange juice– pineapple juice will also work with this recipe
- Lemon-lime pop– 7Up or Sprite work great, cut some of the sugar and use club soda!
- Blue Curacao liquor– this is what turns your drink green!
So, it’s cocktail time for me! Which means, it’s cocktail recipe time for the blog. And that means, cocktails for everyone!
And, because you all know how much I love making videos now, haha, you can see my hands in action!
Happy Holidays!

I did the same and its great.
Saw this during a last minute adventure to the liquor store for this year’s Christmas. Its not a very happy one so we were looking for something grinch themed . Came right up w this. Made it with some crushed ice as soon as we got home and my husband loves it . We used his favorite captain Morgan rum and added some cherry juice for extra flare and it came out great! Like a bleeding grinch drink. It was a hit. Thank u. My first mix drink i ever made hes impressed .
Whoohoo! Cheers!
What can you use instead of schnapps?
This is so tasty! I used coconut Malibu rum and pineapple juice. Yum!
I don’t know if it’s me or what, but I cannot see where the video is.
Is it still up?
Looks great tastes less than great.
Merry Christmas and wishing you peace, joy and happiness in the new year.
Thank you, and you too!
These are so cute! They should be called Anti-Grinch Drinks!
Looks delicious and fun, Aimee!! A lethal combination when alcohol is involved haha.

Aw, too bad you can’t have wine anymore… but these Grinchy drinks look awesome! Def making these this weekend for me and my friends! 🙂

Kitschy Christmas cocktails are the bomb. I usually don’t like fruity drinks, but when it has a fun name, I’m all “oh, okay, let’s try that!” I’m all for partying with the grinch.
Grinch drink sounds so yummy and looks so festive!!
