Christmas Hurricane Punch

Last Updated 12/2/2025


This Christmas Hurricane Punch brings Bourbon Street spirit to your holiday table! With rum, bright citrus, and a blend of tropical and festive juices, it’s the perfect punch for four merry guests (or two very ambitious ones). Sweet, tart, and dazzlingly red — it’s a Christmas toast that would make even Santa trade in his milk for a glass.


Ingredients (Serves 4)

4 oz white rum
4 oz dark rum
6 oz orange juice
6 oz pineapple juice
6 oz cranberry juice
2 oz grenadine
Orange or lemon wedges, for garnish
Maraschino cherries, for garnish

(You’ll need a container that holds at least 30 ounces.)


Directions

  1. Fill a large shaker, pitcher, or mixing container with ice.

  2. Add the white rum, dark rum, orange juice, pineapple juice, cranberry juice, and grenadine.

  3. Stir or shake well until everything is well mixed and chilled.

  4. Pour into hurricane glasses (or festive ornament cups).

  5. Garnish each serving with a wedge of orange or lemon and a maraschino cherry.


Serving Tips

• Serve over crushed ice for that classic hurricane chill.
• Add a sugared rim or a cinnamon stick for extra Christmas flair.
• Double or triple the recipe for a punch bowl that’ll keep the party glowing.
