A 2 Ingredient Christmas Rum Drink for a crowd
The ease and simplicity really makes this the perfect Christmas cocktail to mix up and serve for a holiday shindig in a flash!
The Shortcut: Pre-made Piña Colada Mix
To make these fun Christmas party coladas, I use Bacardi Mixers frozen piña colada mix. Alternatively, you can use your favorite piña colada recipe or your favorite piña colada mix as a shortcut.
If you can’t find the Bacardi mixers brand in the frozen section, I highly recommend Torani’s piña colada smoothie mix, Island Oasis piña colada drink mix, or Frusheez piña colada slushie mix. You can still follow about the same ratio of rum and ice while adjusting as needed.
We’ll set the cocktail shaker aside for now and bust out the blender. This cocktail mix comes pre-packaged in the frozen section and makes an easy consistent cocktail every time.
It comes in concentrate form so be sure to add enough ice to the blender to make it frosty and creamy! If you like it less sweet, you can always just add more ice or even a splash of unsweetened coconut cream.
Make Frosty Snow Colada Christmas Rum Drinks
To turn this into a blender cocktail simply add the frozen piña colada cocktail mix to the blender. For best results, I like to start by adding half a cup of rum.
Add Rum To the Piña Colada Blender Mix
You can use a pyrex or measuring cups to help with measuring spirits. Here I decided to eyeball it using the carton from the cocktail mix.
If you feel like the taste of the rum hasn’t come through in the cocktail after blending, delicately work your way up by the ounce using a jigger. As I always say with punches and batch cocktails, be careful not to overdo it too much. You can always pour it in but you can’t take it back out if it’s too much.
Add Plenty Of Ice To Make the Christmas Rum Cocktail Smooth and Creamy
Next, add plenty of ice. I used the same carton that came with the piña colada mix to fill with ice and toss into the blender. I tossed in about 3 full measures of ice using the carton which is equal to about 3 cups. This kept the cocktail on the sweet and creamy side!
You might choose to add between 3 and 5 cups of ice depending on how sweet you’d like the Christmas rum cocktail. The pre-made piña colada mix really does keep things simple and consistent. That’s why it makes the perfect Christmas drink every time you make it!
To get these fun frosty Christmas piña colada cocktails dressed for this festive season, grab some sanding sugars in red or green. Grab your cocktail glasses and gently dip them in a little simple syrup or light corn syrup.
Make Colorful Christmas Cocktail Rims
Immediately dip in the colorful sanding sugars. It helps to spread the sugars on a flat plate for dipping the glasses in an even layer.Once you’ve dipped your glasses, place them in the freezer to set.
Do this in advance before making the cocktail. This will give the cocktail glasses a chance to chill all the way through.
When you pull them out of the freezer and pour in the Christmas rum drinks, the cups will glaze over with a nice frosty finish. They’ll keep the delicious cocktail colder for longer. I like to serve them in these simple small stemless wine glasses.
They have a nice clean look that will show off all that snowy cold piña colada cocktail mix!
Add Little Color To Make Festive Holiday Rum Christmas Coladas
If desired, add 2 or 3 drops of red or green food coloring to the glasses with the cocktail. Stir the cocktail thoroughly with a spoon to create fun frozen Christmas coladas in holiday colors. You can also add a few drops of the food coloring directly into the blender to make all red or Grinch green Christmas coladas!
Add A Festive Finishing Touch!
Garnish this festive drink with fun Christmas cocktail stirrers like these! You can also pick up longer wood skewers or picks and decorate with Christmas glitter foam stickers like I did here!

To make these cute diy cocktail stirrers, simply peel the foamy glitter holiday stickers and stick onto the tips of the wood skewers. They make a fun decoration for your Christmas party cocktails. You just want to make sure the skewers are long enough so they stand out nicely. Otherwise, a cute little mini candy cane sitting on the rim of the glass makes a fun holiday statement too!
