🍷 Wine Drinking Games (8 Games)
Wine is basically a personality trait at girls’ night. These games are designed specifically for sipping (or chugging) your favorite vintage.
1. Wine Roulette
Players: 4+ | What you need: Different wines, numbered glasses
Pour different wines into numbered glasses. Everyone tastes blind and guesses the variety, origin, or price. Wrong guesses = finish the glass. The wine “sommelier” of the group gets bragging rights until next girls’ night.
2. Sip or Spill
Players: 3+ | What you need: Wine, juicy questions
Each round, one person reads a spicy question. Everyone else must either SIP (answer honestly) or SPILL (drink and stay silent). The catch? If everyone sips, the person who gave the most boring answer drinks again.
3. Wine Pong
Players: 4 (2v2) | What you need: Cups, ping pong balls, wine
💰 Dares hit different when there’s money on the line.
Xdares locks in dares with escrowed stakes, timed commitments, and video proof. No empty threats.
The classier cousin of Beer Pong. Same rules, but with wine. Use smaller cups and sip portions because nobody wants to chug a full cup of Cabernet. Pro tip: use white wine to save your carpet.
4. Most Likely To: Girls’ Edition
Players: 4+ | What you need: Wine
Read a “Most Likely To” statement and everyone points to the person they think fits. The person with the most fingers pointed at them drinks that many sips. Gets VERY revealing when the questions get personal. Check out our 150+ Most Likely To Questions for endless rounds.
5. Prosecco Pong
Players: 2+ | What you need: Champagne flutes, ping pong ball, prosecco
Arrange champagne flutes in a triangle. Bounce or toss the ping pong ball. If it lands in a flute, your opponent sips. Extra elegant, extra fun, extra tipsy.
6. The Wine Label Game
Players: 3+ | What you need: Wine bottles with labels
Everyone looks at the wine label art and makes up a dramatic backstory for the image. Group votes on the best story. Losers drink. You’ll never look at wine labels the same way again.
7. Drink If You’ve Done It
Players: 3+ | What you need: Wine
Basically Never Have I Ever but reversed. Read a statement—”Drink if you’ve stalked an ex’s new partner on Instagram.” Anyone who’s done it drinks. It’s Never Have I Ever’s messy older sister.
8. Cork Toss
Players: 2+ | What you need: Wine corks, bowl
Place a bowl across the room. Take turns tossing wine corks. Miss = sip. Closest to center gets to make a rule. Simple, silly, and surprisingly competitive after two glasses.
💬 Truth & Confession Games (7 Games)
Girls’ night is therapy with wine. These games get the secrets flowing faster than the Pinot Grigio.
9. Two Truths and a Lie: Spicy Edition
Players: 3+ | What you need: Nothing but courage
Everyone shares two true statements and one lie—but they MUST be about dating, relationships, or embarrassing moments. The group guesses the lie. Wrong guessers drink. Gets wilder every round.
10. Confession Roulette
Players: 4+ | What you need: Paper, pen, bowl
Everyone writes an anonymous confession on paper and drops it in a bowl. Take turns reading them aloud. Group tries to guess who wrote it. If they guess right, the confessor drinks. If they’re wrong, everyone drinks.
11. Rate Your Dates
Players: 3+ | What you need: Wine, honesty
Each person shares their worst, best, or most awkward date story. The group rates each story 1-10. Lowest-rated story’s teller makes a toast and drinks. Best story wins immunity from the next drinking round.
12. Phone Roulette
Players: 3+ | What you need: Phones, bravery
Everyone puts phones in the center. Someone calls out a prompt: “Show your most recent DM,” “Show your screen time,” or “Show the last photo in your camera roll.” You can show it (safe) or refuse and drink twice. The drama is UNMATCHED.
13. Hot Takes
Players: 3+ | What you need: Wine
Each person shares a controversial opinion (“Ross and Rachel were NOT on a break”). Group votes: agree or disagree. If you’re in the minority, drink. If it’s a tie, everyone drinks.
14. Truth or Dare: Girls’ Night Edition
Players: 3+ | What you need: Wine, creativity

Mean Girls inspired! Everyone writes funny (NOT mean) superlatives for each person: “Most likely to marry a celebrity,” “Most likely to become a wine aunt,” etc. Read them aloud and guess who wrote each one. Wrong guesses = drink.
