Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose! Now it can be the sippable centerpiece of your holiday celebration.
Rudolph’s Red-Nose Punch highlights the the winter cranberry flavor you love. The, it turns it into a deliciously cute cocktail for all party guests. It’s also easy to make this a non-alcoholic drink by leaving out the raspberry vodka and using a pump of raspberry syrup instead. Gather ’round the television with the family to watch this wonderful holiday classic over a glass of sparkly punch.
Where Does Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer Come From?
The story of “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” originated in a children’s book from 1939. It’s a tale about being proud to stand out from the crowd and finding your own hidden talent, like Rudolph’s red nose. Other reindeers initially mock him for it, but in the end, he saves the day. Gene Autry’s 1948 song about Rudolph warmed so many hearts that then the classic television film based on it came out of that in 1964. The addition of original songs like “The Island of Misfit Toys” were part of what made the film such memorable holiday staple!
