Peppermint Drink For Kids + Adults
If you’re a fan of all things peppermint, you’ll love this peppermint mocktail. It’s a sweet drink with a ton of peppermint flavor.
With Christmas being my favorite holiday, I’m a huge fan of peppermint everything! This peppermint mocktail is excellent for holiday parties, Christmas dinner, and even a New Year’s Eve toast.
Both kids and adults can enjoy this holiday drink.
This peppermint drink is unique
What I like about this drink is the addition of the peppermint stick. We’ve created other kid-friendly peppermint drinks before, like our Christmas Peppermint Julep {Kid-Friendly}, and Perfect Christmas Peppermint Shake Cocktail.
What’s different about this drink is the change of color.
This mocktail initially starts as a clear, light color. Once you add the peppermint stick, the color starts to change to a darker pink color.
Kids will love watching the color change, so I recommend not putting the peppermint stick in the drink until the kids or adults are ready to drink it.

Ingredients:
- 1 oz of peppermint syrup

- 2 oz of Blood Orange Flavored Sparkling Juice
- 2 oz of Lemon-Lime Soda (I used Sprite)

- Stir for about 15 seconds.

The holiday season is such a fun time of the year, but you can’t do the holidays without food and good drinks. This peppermint drink will get you in the holiday mood, with the sweet taste of peppermint candy. And with the way this drink changes color, it’s a fun holiday drink to serve!
