Looking for the perfect holiday punch recipe? This Jingle Juice is sure to be a hit! This cocktail is simple, delicious, and beautiful! Even better? You only need three ingredients to craft this delicious holiday punch recipe that absolutely everyone will love!
One of my favorite things about the holiday season is all of the time spent with family and friends.
With get-togethers to attend and parties at your own place, it’s great to have a few delicious go-to recipes in your repertoire. That’s why I thought I’d tell you about my favorite (and super easy) drink to make for gatherings: Jingle Juice Holiday Punch.
The Easiest Holiday Punch
A couple of years ago a neighboring town hosted a Christmas open house in all of their little downtown shops. Adults had the option of buying a ticket and enjoying wine or a festive cocktail at each of the stores. I know, it sounds like trouble, but it was such a fun time.
One of the stores served this punch. It was delightful!
When I found out it was made with only three ingredients, I was even more impressed. I have no idea what the store owners called the punch so I decided to name it Jingle Juice because it’s a kick to say.

Jingle Juice Ingredients
As I mentioned above you only need three ingredients to make this Jingle Juice Holiday Punch.
- Whipped Vodka – The one I like is from Pinnacle brand. Smirnoff also makes a Whipped Cream vodka. If you can’t find whipped, try vanilla.
- Pink Champagne or Sparkling Rosé – I prefer one on the dry side to cut down on the sweetness of the punch.
- Cherry 7-up – I prefer the regular here, but you can certainly go with diet. If you can’t find this, you can also use Sprint Cranberry Zero, Cranberry Ginger Ale, or any berry lemon-lime soda.
How to Make this Holiday Punch
You really don’t need an explanation on how to put this together because it’s that simple, but I’m going to tell you anyway. Plus, I’ll give you some tips on how to fancify the recipe too!
There is also a printable recipe card with instructions at the end of this post.
1. Get a punch bowl or extra large pitcher and fill it with ice.
I decided to get fancy and make super-sized ice cubes (with these molds) that contained cranberries and rosemary. This is totally optional.
Another way to make it a bit more extra is to just toss in some cranberries. However, I think the ice cubes are such a fun touch and keep the holiday punch cold too.
2. Then add your three ingredients.
All you need is whipped vodka, pink champagne (or sparkling Rosé), and a 2-liter bottle of Cherry 7-up. Give it a quick stir and you’re ready to go.
3. Pour, sip, and enjoy!
It’s really that easy. Isn’t that color gorgeous?
The resulting cocktail is delicious and so festive. It’s definitely a crowd pleaser.
FAQs about Holiday Punch
I’ve made this recipe dozens of times over the years. I always get the same questions, so wanted to go ahead and answer them for you here in case you have them too!
Why is it called punch?
I took a deep dive to find the answer to this one! The rumor is that “punch” is from a hindi word that means “five”. Punch was first discovered in India and traditionally had 5 ingredients (alcohol, sugar, juice, spice, and water), so the name makes perfect sense!
This punch is even more simple with just 3 ingredients, but we’ll still call it punch. 😉
How can I make my holiday punch sweeter?
If you are a fan of drinks that are on the sweeter side, choose sweet pink champagne or sweet sparkling rosé. Prefer a less sweet holiday punch? Opt for a dry sparkling alcohol instead.
Typically, bottles will be labeled as sweet or dry, but if you aren’t sure how to tell, ask someone at the liquor store.
What’s the best way to serve this punch?
I’m serving up my punch in these simple, yet elegant double old-fashioned glasses. You can find them here.
You could also serve this in a punch bowl or beverage dispenser.
That’s a wrap on Jingle Juice!

Can’t wait to make this as our signature drink at our Christmas party. Silly question-is whipped vodka, vanilla flavored?
Never-mind! Just read the comment above!
Sooo sweet. Made it for a party the taste was fine, but no one like the sweetness.
You can cut down on the sweetness by using a dry pink champagne. My guess is that your pink champagne was too sweet.

Hi! What size pitcher would you recommend for this? I have a 90oz, will that fit everything?
I am In Panama (country), and can´t find whipped vodka =(
I asume this will not with regular vodka?
You can use a vanilla vodka.

I’ve made this for a couple of Christmas parties. Very simple and taste great!
Thanks for sharing! How far ahead of time can I mix them up?
You want to keep things bubbly so just before serving.

Perfect to reenergize, will definitely gonna try it in multiple occasions . Thanks for sharing instructions .
We made the punch last night. It was delicious and the cranberries made the drink beautiful. However, I have one critique. Once they thawed in your glass, if you bit into them or ate them, they are extremely sour. I’m wondering if there could be a replacement that you could drink and eat like pomegranate? Any suggestions to what might taste good but not change the flavor of the lunch?
They are intuited to be more decorative than as a snack. Yes, you could use pomegranate seeds instead.

Hi! Could this be made with regular champagne, not the rose champagne? I have a huge bottle of champagne that I wanted to use up and found this recipe and thought it could be used?
You can. It will change the flavor and color.

How would you make this non-alcoholic but with close to the same taste? I was thinking it would be easy to replace the rosé with Welch’s non-alcoholic sparkling rosé, but I’m not sure what to replace the vodka with. Thanks!
I’m not sure you can replicate the taste without alcohol as 2/3rds of it is alcohol. I’d suggest a different non-alcoholic recipe.
