Eggnog, anyone?

[Lost Californian]

Does any one like eggnog with booze in it? Sweetie and I like Evan Williams Eggnog, but it is getting hard to find. Only one bottle this year.

What's your favorite concoction?

I tried some standard nog with some Jim Beam Vanilla. Wasn't too bad!

 

[Lpherr]

I've never tried any of the pre-mixes, but I've had it with rum, Jim Beam, and once with peppermint schnapps. Didn't like the schnapps.
I haven't had any nog this year, it's been hard to find and quite pricey.

Picked some up at Costco. Not sure what alcohol was in it but it was good. Have a rule all eggnog must be consumed by Christmas so I no longer have the bottle.

Was it in the cooler? Brown bottle? I think it was Southern Comfort?

I like it better plain.

I love egg nog. I make a batch twice a year. Usually will cut this recipe in half when i make it. Lasts me a couple weeks as I'm the only one in the house that likes egg nog. This is my dad's recipe that was used for annual NY day party they put on every year. Can substitute your favorite whiskey. Sugar, Vanilla, and nutmeg are to taste

That's about $30 for eggs.

I’m the only one in my house that likes it too. Nobody but me will even drink a glass of milk.

My favorite additive for Egg Nog…

Same here. If I do put any alcohol in it, it would be a little bit of white rum, but I prefer it without alcohol. No shortage of it at Kroger this year.

Doing a half batch costs me $12 for the eggs. But that isn't store bought. That's farm fresh where the eggs are no more than a couple days old. I pay $3 per dozen

Makes a huge difference in flavor and color wise. Haven't eaten store bought eggs in a couple decades.

If you have extra time...

It's awesome.

I can only drink it "strait" in small portions, tastes like pancake batter.
Add the above mentioned Kahlua or one of these and I'll drink it til it's gone.

On my list to try soon…

I find that a majority of folks, that say they do not like it, have never tried homemade egg nog.

 

[Ingomike]

Mine is 12 yolks, 12 whites, a pound of powdered sugar, half a gallon of whipping cream whipped. And two cups of a brandy, bourbon, and rum blended, with a another two cups to add for those that want a stronger flavor. Mmmmmm

Sounds healthy, I'll have two please.

It is heavenly if one likes things like meringue and whipped cream, flavored by the alcohol.

It sounds interesting. I used to relieve mom's lemon meringue pies, of their meringue.
