Drinks to Keep You Warm During the Winter: Eggnog










Eggnog is a sweetened dairy-based beverage traditionally made with milk and/or cream, sugar, beaten eggs (which gives it a frothy texture), and liquor.  Brandy, rum, moonshine, or whiskey is always added; and the finished serving would be garnished with a sprinkling of ground cinnamon or nutmeg.  Eggnog is a popular drink throughout the United States and Canada, and is usually associated with winter celebrations such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year.
