If you’ve spent any time on TikTok lately, you’ve probably seen those adorable Snow Globe Glasses pop up again and again. They’re simple, they’re fun, and honestly, they’re really adorable. My kids got a kick out of the glasses when I tried to make them for the first time this year. And, ever since then, they haven’t stopped requesting to make even more.
Whether you’re hosting friends, hanging out with family, or just looking for something new to add to your holidays, these snowy drinks are an easy win. You only need a few everyday ingredients, a little freezer space, and about ten minutes of hands-on time. Before you know it, you’ve got a glass that looks like it came straight out of the North Pole’s kitchen.
What You’ll Need
- Fresh rosemary sprigs (for your “Christmas trees”)
- Fresh cranberries
- String and tape
- Water
- Sparkling beverage of choice (sparkling water, club soda, or lemon-lime soda)
- Clear glass
How to Make the TikTok Christmas Snow Globe Glasses
1. Add the Snow Scene
Fill your glass with about an inch of water. Drop in a few cranberries for color.
2. Set the Tree
Tie a string around the top of a rosemary sprig and center it in the glass. Use two small pieces of tape to secure the string on both sides of the glass so your “tree” stays upright.
3. Freeze
Carefully place the glass in the freezer and let it freeze completely.
4. Add the Sparkle
Once frozen, pour your favorite bubbly drink over the icy “snow globe.” The carbonation will cling to the rosemary sprig, creating a snow-kissed, sparkling effect.
5. Serve and Celebrate
These snow globe glasses look great on a holiday drink station or next to a dessert spread. I love displaying them alongside a Dutch Apron® Bakery Cake Roll; the sparkle of the drink and the sweetness of the cake just look so beautiful together. Pumpkin, Carrot Cake, Chocolate Crème…you really can’t go wrong.
Make It a Family Activity!
This is one of those simple holiday projects where everyone can help. Kids can assemble the cranberries and “trees”, and adults can take care of the freezing and the final pour. It’s easy, it’s creative, and it brings people together which is the whole point of the season, right?
