Do you have your Christmas menu planned? Often times having a special drink to serve makes your dinner extra special. It is the perfect time for some festive holiday drinks for Christmas and New Years Eve.
One of those is the delicious Creamy Peppermint Punch. This is the best Christmas recipe, that is fit for adults and kids!
With only 3 ingredients you can make this festive Peppermint Punch! Keep it simple for the kids or add a little Peppermint Schnapps for the adults! Rim the glasses with crushed peppermint to add a fun festive touch to this Christmas Drink Recipe!
This Peppermint Punch is creamy but not too sweet. You can also add alcohol, either peppermint or whipping up actual spiked eggnog and using 2 cups of that with the ice cream. So wonderful.
The combination of Eggnog and Peppermint Ice Cream makes the drink extra creamy. The peppermint ice cream was white, therefore I added a few drops of red food coloring.
Serve with crushed Candy Canes around the rim of the glass for an extra special touch. To rim your glasses with crushed candy, place crushed candy on a plate. Dip the rims of the glasses into water and place on crushed candies. Repeat until all glasses are covered. Set aside. You can also sprinkle the candies onto the rims of the glasses.
