Fun topic! Here are some popular Christmas party drinking games that can be played with a large group:
1. **White Elephant**: Each player brings a wrapped, used, or inexpensive gift. Players draw numbers and then take turns choosing gifts to open. When someone opens a gift, they have the option to steal it from another player.
2. **Never Have I Ever**: A classic drinking game! Players take turns saying "Never have I ever..." followed by something like "drunk on Christmas Eve" or "had eggnog for breakfast." Anyone who HAS done the thing takes a drink.
3. **Christmas Carol Charades**: Divide players into two teams. One player from each team is randomly chosen to act out a popular Christmas carol without singing or making noise. Their teammates have to guess the song. If they fail, everyone on the opposing team drinks.
4. **Jingle Bell Rock**: Players take turns saying "Jingle Bell Rock" and then adding a new word (e.g., "Jingle Bell Rock... Santa"). The next player has to say the entire phrase again, including the added word. If someone messes up or can't remember all the words, they drink.
5. **Christmas Movie Quote Game**: Write down famous quotes from Christmas movies on slips of paper. Players take turns drawing a quote and saying it out loud. If another player can finish the quote, they get to assign drinks to someone else. If not, that player has to take a drink themselves.
6. **Reindeer Games**: Create teams and play games like "Dreidel" or "Rock, Paper, Scissors" with a twist: each game won is worth one drink for the opposing team. Losers have to drink.
7. **Christmas Carol Pictionary**: Divide players into two teams. One player from each team draws a popular Christmas carol while their teammates try to guess the song. Each incorrect guess results in a drink for that team.
8. **Holiday Horror Story**: Have each player take turns telling a scary holiday-themed story (e.g., "The time I accidentally superglued my shoes to the floor..."). The more creative and outlandish the story, the more drinks everyone else has to take!
9. **Christmas Trivia**: Prepare trivia questions related to Christmas (history, movies, music, etc.). Players earn drinks for correct answers.
10. **Secret Santa Scavenger Hunt**: Each player is assigned a "secret Santa" who gives them clues or challenges to complete. The first one to finish their tasks wins! Losing players have to drink.
Remember to always drink responsibly and make sure everyone has a way home safely.
Here are some popular Christmas party drinking games for adults:

2. **Christmas Carol Charades**: Divide players into two teams. One team member is given a Christmas song title (e.g., "Jingle Bell Rock") and must act out the song without singing or speaking. The opposing team tries to guess the song title. Each incorrect guess results in a drink for that player.

6. **Word Scramble**: Write down Christmas-related words (e.g., "SLEIGH," "REINDEER," "HOLLY") and scramble the letters. Players must unscramble as many words as possible within a set time limit. Each incorrect guess results in a drink.

As players sing along to their favorite holiday tunes, they mark off the corresponding song titles on their cards. The first player to get five in a row wins and gets others to take a drink.
8. **Mistletoe Mischief**: Players sit in a circle with a mistletoe hanging above them. When someone says "Merry Christmas!" (or a predetermined phrase), the person under the mistletoe must kiss or give a high-five to another player of their choice. If they refuse, they take a drink.
9. **Holiday Trivia**: Create a quiz with questions about popular holiday traditions, movies, music, and more. Players who answer incorrectly take a drink.

A fun idea! Here are some Christmas party drinking games that are suitable for a family gathering:
1. **White Elephant Gift Exchange**: Each person brings a wrapped, used, or inexpensive gift. Players draw numbers to determine the order in which they get to choose a gift. When it's your turn, you can either open a new gift or "steal" a gift already opened by another player. If someone steals a gift from you, you can then steal a gift from someone else. Each time a gift is stolen, everyone who has had that gift taken away from them takes a drink.
2. **Christmas Carol Charades**: Divide the group into two teams. Write down Christmas song titles or lyrics on slips of paper, and have each team take turns acting out the song without singing. If the team guesses the song correctly, they earn a point. For every incorrect guess, one player from the guessing team has to take a drink.
3. **Holiday Trivia**: Create a quiz with questions about Christmas traditions, movies, music, or history. Players who answer incorrectly have to take a drink. You can also offer bonus questions that require players to perform a silly task, like singing a Christmas carol or doing a funny dance.
4. **Secret Santa Storytelling**: Each person writes down a fun fact or story about themselves on a piece of paper and puts it in a hat. Players then draw a paper and have to tell the story without revealing their own identity. If someone guesses correctly, the storyteller takes a drink. If not, the guesser has to take a drink.
5. **Christmas Movie Drinking Game**: Choose a popular Christmas movie to watch together. Set rules for taking drinks, such as:
* Every time someone says "ho ho ho," they have to take a sip.
* When a character does something silly or embarrassing, everyone who is still awake has to take a drink.
* If someone yells out a quote from the movie without being prompted, they earn a bonus point (or drink).
6. **Jingle Bell Rock**: Play a Christmas song and have each player hold a jingle bell in one hand and a drink in the other. When the music stops, players who are still holding their bells have to take a sip. Repeat this process until only one person is left holding their bell.
7. **Christmas Carol Karaoke**: Divide the group into teams or play individually. Choose a Christmas song for each player to sing along to. If someone messes up the lyrics or can't hit the notes, they have to take a drink.
Remember to always drink responsibly and never drink while driving or operating heavy machinery.
