This candy cane Christmas punch is not only delicious but also so quick and easy to make! The combination of eggnog and peppermint works wonderfully and it looks so festive too! This is a creamy, ice cream punch recipe that is full of flavor and can be enjoyed with or without peppermint schnapps.

This is a festive holiday punch that’s incredibly tasty and easy to make. It’s only four ingredients (three if you leave out the peppermint schnapps) so if you need a last-minute holiday treat, this is great! You wouldn’t think eggnog and peppermint ice cream would go together, but they do and make a very Christmassy combo.

A Non Alcoholic Punch Candy Cane Punch

We all know Christmas is a time when we indulge in a tipple or two or three! If you want to make this a punch for kids, just leave out the peppermint schnapps! This punch is a great nonalcoholic alternative to boozy punches, so it really is crowd and kid-friendly!

What Is Eggnog?

One of the main ingredients in this Christmas cocktail is eggnog. It really is quite delicious! It is traditionally made with milk, cream, sugar, whipped egg whites, and egg yolks. In texture, it’s like fluid cream. In taste, it’s much like a custard. It’s the perfect festive base for this tasty punch.
