If you were asked to name a drink that is associated with the Christmas season, eggnog would likely be near the top of that list. I was never a big eggnog fan, but this year, our local grocery store had 1L cartons on sale for 99 cents, so I decided to pick some up. The family got together for Christmas eve and we decided to serve some holiday cheer. The following is how we prepared our eggnog, which was a hit:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup ice
- 1 ounce of white rum (optional)
- 1 cup eggnog
- 1 whole nutmeg
Preparation:
- place ice cubes in glass
- pour in 1 ounce of white rum (optional). Eggnog is best served cold, so it is suggested to keep the white rum in the freezer prior
- add 1 cup chilled eggnog, top up to taste
- stir
- grate a dash of whole nutmeg over top, add to taste

Grating whole nutmeg smells and tastes better than packaged ground nutmeg |
