This fabulous Grinch Juice from Simpleethrifty.com is one of our most popular repins on our Christmas Fun Board on Pinterest.

We love the idea that they have used, to colour sugar green and then dip your glass rim into the coloured sugar before serving.

This Christmas Slush recipe from Highheelsandgrills.com uses Cherry Cool-Aid (for our UK & Irish fans you can buy single sachets or packs from Amazon.co.uk).

It’s ideal too as you can make it ahead of time and freeze before adding the last ingredient.
