Top 10 Christmas Movie Drinking Games:
Grinch Drinking Game
I’m so surprised that no one has created the Grinch drinking game rules. So we took the initiative to make sure all the classic Christmas movies are included in our drinking game series. Grinch Drinking Game Found here.
You could also try the simplest version of all. Split into 2 teams, the Grinch or the Whos. Whenever either word is said, that team drinks. The Grinches drink when the Grinch is said and vice versa.
Santa Claus Drinking Game
I can’t help but think of Tim the Toolman Tailor when I watch this movie. Classic movie of my childhood for sure. Get the full Santa Claus Drinking Game rules.
My favorite rule of this movie Christmas drinking game, is drink when a sexual innuendo is made. HAH! Now that I watch this back as an adult, it’s hilarious to know this was my childhood favorite movie. And years later, I’m drinking to the sexual innuendos.
Elf Movie Drinking Games

This has to be number 1, Elf. The silliest movie, with lots of innuendos, and a classic comedy Christmas movie. So this definitely is my go-to drinking game Christmas movie.
A Christmas Story Drinking Game
A rule of this game is taking a drink anytime someone swears incoherently. I think after this Christmas movie drinking game you will be swearing incoherently!
Home Alone

Another classic movie. These rules get fun with sips and shots. After all the times you might sip to “pizza” you might want to get one of those prepared for the movie too.
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation Movie Drinking Game
Another classic Christmas movie. I think the best part of Christmas movies is watching the same classics, over and over again, year after year. Sure I do love the new Christmas movies, but I normally only watch one or two in a season.
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation takes us back to the days and origin of stupid humor infused with Christmas cheer. I like these Christmas movie drinking game rules because there are only 6 of them. Keep it simple. With the movies that have a bunch of rules, I start to forget the rules half way through. Haha.
Watch National Lampoons Christmas Story.
Love Actually Drinking Game

This is the newest movie in our Christmas movie drinking game list. A story about 4 different couples, but it’s incredibly cliché. For example, one of these rules, is take a drink when someone cries. In any typical love story, that is bound to happen atleast a couple times. With the story of 4 couples, it’s a drinkfest.
