Valentine’s Day is not just about candlelit dinners and roses. It’s a day to celebrate your unique bond with a loved one, and what better way to do so than with some drinking games? Whether you’re looking to deepen your connection or just share a few laughs, these drinking games for couples are the perfect addition to your romantic evening. So, grab your favorite drink and get ready to play.
Spot the Lie
What You’ll Need:
- Just a good knowledge of your partner
Rules:
Think you know everything about your partner? Test your knowledge with a romantic twist on the classic Two Truths and a Lie. Give three statements and let your partner guess the lie. If they’re right, you take a sip; if they’re wrong, they do. It’s a playful way to uncover new tidbits about each other.
Drunk Jenga
What You’ll Need:
- Jenga blocks
- Marker
Rules:
Turn Jenga into a couple’s game by writing fun, flirty, or deep questions on each block. Every time you pull a block, you’ll answer the question (or perform the action, wink wink) before putting it back on top. Whether it’s just the two of you or you’re on a double date, it’s a great way to build connections – literally and figuratively.
Whoever makes the tower fall finishes their drink.
Doubles: Drinking Games for 2 App
What You’ll Need:
- Doubles app
Rules:
The Doubles Drinking Game app has been around for a couple years, but it remains a perfect option for couples looking to try out a variety of games. Just download and let the app guide your evening. Whether you’re competitive or cooperative, there’s a game for every couple.
Question-Answer Game
What You’ll Need:
- Some spicy questions
Rules:
“When will I meet your parents?” Ramp up the intimacy with a question-answer game where the stakes get progressively personal. Take turns asking each other questions, with the other choosing to answer or take a drink. It’s a revealing way to deepen your connection or share a few unexpected laughs.
This game works best when nothing is off limits and there’s no “penalty” for choosing not to answer.
Beer Pong with Dares
What You’ll Need:
- 3, 6, or 10 red solo cups
- Ping pong balls
- Paper and pen
Rules:
Perfect for couples who met at a frat house. Add a twist to the classic beer pong game by writing dares on pieces of paper and placing them under each cup. When someone gets a ball into the cup, the person will drink and perform the dare written on the paper underneath it. It’s not just about aiming skills but also about being adventurous enough to perform the tasks.
Eye Contact
What You’ll Need:
- Confidence
Sometimes, the simplest games are the most intense. Sit across from each other and stare into each other’s eyes. First one to look away, laughs, or blushes has to take a drink. It’s a game of endurance and a chance to get lost in each other’s gaze.
Guess the Word
What You’ll Need:
- Just each other
Rules:
Get close and personal with this tactile game. Trace a word on your partner’s back and have them guess what it is. If they’re right, you drink; if not, it’s their turn. It’s a fun and flirty way to test your communication skills.
Drunk Mario Kart
What You’ll Need:
- Mario Kart (from the N64 version to the newest Switch one, any of them work)
- 2 controllers
Rules:
For the gamer couples, combine your love for video games with a drinking challenge. Also called “Don’t Drink and Drive,” this Mario Kart drinking game requires racers to finish their drink before the race ends. But here’s the catch: you can’t drink while you’re driving – pull over in the game to take a sip before getting back on the road. It’s a hilarious way to add stakes to your favorite game.
Taste and Tell
What You’ll Need
- Food
- Blindfolds
Rules:
Blindfolded taste tests aren’t just for cooking shows. Either cook a meal or grab some of your favorite and weird snacks and take turns feeding each other and guessing what it is. Right guesses mean your partner drinks, wrong ones mean you do. It’s a delicious way to add some sensory play to your evening.
Movie Drinking Game
What You’ll Need:
- A favorite movie or show
Rules:
Pick a romantic movie and set rules for when to drink – like every time someone says “love,” takes a sip. It’s a cozy way to enjoy your favorite films with a boozy twist.
The website DrinkWhen has a bunch of great drinking game ideas for almost every movie or show you can think of.
Flip, Sip, or Strip
What You’ll Need:
- Coin
Rules:
Let’s get risqué. In this simple coin-flipping game, have your partner guess heads or tails. If they get it wrong, they take a sip. If they get it wrong twice in a row, then they remove an article of clothing. It’s a playful (and quick) way to turn up the heat.
Straight Face
What You’ll Need:
- Paper and pen
Rules:
Write funny or naughty sentences on paper, and take turns reading them without any expression. If you stammer, chuckle, blush, anything – you drink. It’s a great way to share laughs and see who can keep a straight face the longest.
Drink Responsibly
This Valentine’s Day, step out of the box of traditional romance and add some fun to your evening. These drinking games for couples are not just about getting drunk; they’re about sharing moments, laughter, and love.
As with all drinking games, be sure to know your limits and check in regularly with those around you. Drink responsibly; play responsibly. Never drink and drive.
