a drink made with milk, sugar, eggs, and alcoholic beverages such as brandy or rum
Eggnog is a popular holiday drink in North America that is usually consumed during the winter months. It is made from a mixture of milk, cream, sugar, eggs, and spices such as nutmeg and cinnamon. The drink is typically served chilled and may be garnished with whipped cream or additional spices. Eggnog has a rich, creamy texture and a sweet, spicy flavor that is reminiscent of the holiday season. The origins of eggnog can be traced back to medieval Europe, where it was traditionally made with hot milk and eggs. It later became a popular drink in the American colonies, where rum or whiskey was often added to the recipe. Today, eggnog is a staple of many holiday celebrations and is often enjoyed at parties and gatherings with family and friends. While commercial versions of eggnog can be found in grocery stores, many people prefer to make their own homemade eggnog to adjust the sweetness and spice levels to their liking.
