[2] The EP includes five original songs and three "whimsical" interludes with Cummings ("Santa's Not So Little Helper", "Nina the Extra Elf", and "The West Christmas Ever").

[3] Billboard's Stehen Daw wrote, "The new project sees the star tackling all the genres she can, from country-rock to classic choral Christmas, all while playing up her character as Nina the Elf, and not-so-helpful helper of Santa Claus.

[3] West said that the song was her favorite to sing and record for the EP, and described "Jingle Juice" as having a "rockabilly, Chris Stapleton, stomp-clap, Christmas at a saloon in the North Pole kind of vibe".

[5][6] "Jingle Juice"'s music video sees West bring the holiday spirit to people "stuck without really celebrating the seasons".

[4] She said that the video has "a mix of the Wild West themes" and was influenced by Dolly Parton, Hee Haw and Lady Bunny, one of her favorite entertainers.

[2][7] Randy Shulman of Metro Weekly called the collection "as festive and funny as you'd hope",[8] and Decider.com's Brett White said that the EP "is sure to spice up your holiday plans with a bit of that Nina West magic, which is kind of a mix of cinnamon and a warm hug".

[4] Jason Brow wrote for Hollywood Life, "Nina gives Santa Claus a run for his money when it comes to spreading the holiday spirit ... her trademark humor is ever-present ...[which]... reminds us that we need to carry this moment of 'peace on earth, goodwill to all' beyond December".

According to Brow, "Jingle Juice" "will put the rocking back in your stocking", described its music video as "joyous", and called "It's Chris, Miss" "hilarious".
