Looking for quick and easy Christmas rum cocktails ? Need a fun Christmas cocktail to serve at your Christmas party or get together? Need a signature Christmas cocktail recipe that’ll wow all your Holiday party guests? Then you gotta check out this SUPER EASY Christmas rum cocktail recipe that turns any glass into a Holiday drink! We call it The Tipsy Elf!
I developed this recipe for holidays after developing (and thoroughly enjoying) a really tasty Halloween Rum Cocktail- The Tipsy Ghost. I wanted to make something that would be even EASIER for holiday parties and Christmas family gatherings. Something that could be made on the fly if necessary.
The Tipsy Elf is an adult, alcoholic cocktail but you can remove the alcohol for a family friendly Christmas mocktail. This fun holiday drink is so quick and easy with just a few, store bought ingredients. Garnish and cute Christmas picks add a festive touch!
You can mix up a large amount in advance in a large party drink dispenser or make them one at a time for smaller, holiday gatherings! Let’s check out the finished holiday cocktail so you can see how cool this turned out!
EASY Christmas Rum Cocktails {The Tipsy Elf}
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
If you would like to make a large batch of the tipsy elf cocktail for a Christmas party…you might want to translate these measurements into parts instead of ounces and pour it all into a large pitcher or large party drink dispenser. A part can be any measurement (like 1 cup, 1 pint etc.) As long as all the parts are equivalent you’ll get the same drink ratios and ultimately the same drink.
The Tipsy Elf Recipe Ingredients:
2oz Bacardi Rum (or 2 parts for large batches)
2oz Cranberry Juice (or 2 parts for large batches)
2oz Ginger Ale (or 2 parts for large batches)
1 Sprig Rosemary (for garnish)
Fresh Cranberries (for garnish)
Ice Cubes
How to Make an Easy Christmas Rum Cocktail Step by Step
Grab your Cocktail Shaker and add a few ice cubes. Add 2 ounces (or two parts) of Bacardi rum and 2 ounces (or two parts) of cranberry juice. Close your shaker and shake to combine and chill.
Fill your drinking glass with ice and pour the rum and cranberry juice mixture over the ice. Pour 2 ounces (or two parts) of ginger ale on top of the rum and cranberry juice. Give a stir with a spoon.
Garnish with a Christmas Themed Paper Straw and a Christmas Themed Drink Pick loaded with cranberries. Add a sprig of rosemary to the drink for garnish. Serve cold immediately and enjoy!
