The holiday season is upon us, which means it’s time to celebrate with gatherings, gifts, cheer and Coca-Cola®. This is the season for bringing joy to your loved ones, and there’s no better way than by sharing a Coke! If you’re thinking about hosting a holiday party, be sure to get some holiday-themed Coca-Colas and step it up with a spicy theme… like naughty and nice :)
Today, in partnership with Coca-Cola®, we’re going to deck the halls with a DIY cocktail bar, perfect for your fête. We’ve got naughty and nice split into two distinct sides of the bar and two delectable cocktails that will bring cheer to any party. Your friends and family will love choosing between the naughty and nice cocktails (or Coke-tails as we like to call them) with holiday-themed glass Coca-Cola bottles (they’re so cute, you’ll want to keep them to decorate your house!). Whether you’ve been good or bad this year, you deserve a refreshing Coca-Cola beverage.
Naughty Cocktail
This cocktail is for the chocolate cherry lover. It’s got that delicious Coca-Cola flavor mixed with the rich, nutty aroma of whiskey and the sweetness of chocolate and cherry.

— 1/2 bottle of “Someone Naughty” Coca-Cola
— 1 1/2 ounces whiskey
— 1 teaspoon chocolate syrup
— 1 teaspoon grenadine

— maraschino cherry
Instructions:
1. Fill a shaker with ice. Add whiskey, chocolate syrup and grenadine, then shake to combine.
2. Pour mixture over ice in a glass. Fill glass with 1/2 a bottle of “Someone Naughty” Coca-Cola.
3. Add whipped cream, drizzle chocolate syrup on top and add a maraschino cherry.
Fill your jigger with whiskey, pour it into your shaker, then add your chocolate and grenadine. Give it a good shake!
Pour the mixture into a glass, then fill it with Coca-Cola. Give it that decadent look by topping it with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup and a cherry on top.
If you’ve got an angel on your shoulder, this one’s for you! Both light and refreshing, this play on rum and Coca-Cola has a delightful citrus twist.
