A Christmas Story Ovaltine Drink

You’ll love this spin on a classic Christmas-time cocktail that is inspired by A Christmas Story. Head to the bottom of the post for the recipe! There’s only 4 simple ingredients – and it tastes similar to a White Russian!

It’s pretty clear that I have have an obsession with Christmas movies! I’ve created Christmas SVGs to celebrate some of my favorites, including:

• Merry Grinchmas
• Stink Stank Stunk
• The Bell Still Rings for Me
• Son of a Nutcracker
• The Santa Clause

and, of course, You’ll Shoot your Eye Out from A Christmas Story. You can buy this whole bundle in my shop – it’s currently on sale!

Growing up, A Christmas Story was one of my family’s favorite movies and we would watch it multiple times over the course of the Christmas season. As an adult, I still watch it at least once every year and we definitely watch it during the 24 hour Christmas Day marathon!

One of my favorite parts of the movie is when Ralphie locks himself in the bathroom to decode the “secret message” and finds out that it’s a commercial for Ovaltine! “Be sure to drink your Ovaltine” makes me laugh every time.

I came up with an adult version of A Christmas Story drink that is perfect for sipping while you’re watching the movie!

A Christmas Story Ovaltini Drink Recipe

This “Ovaltini” is a twist on a White Russian, which is a combination of Kahlua, Cream, and Vodka. I gave this movie inspired cocktail a festive spin by adding some Ovaltine (you can buy Ovaltine on Amazon!). I also used it to rim the glass.

Does Ovaltine make this A Christmas Story cocktail healthy? I’m going with it 🙂 I double dog dare you to try it!
