Tip: Eggnog at the store does not contain alcohol.
You have to put alcohol in it yourself.

I'm sure I've seen stores sell pre-mixed... I mean, the liquor store sells normal eggnog at Christmas time but I think there's the... alternate option.

I likes me a whole bunch of eggnog, all ground up with ice and nutmeg.

Doesn't even need alcohol, really.

Hm, never thought of putting at least nutmeg in eggnog. I might try that.
After I try to figure out how to make some hot apple cider.

Question: Does eggnog taste like egg in the slightest?

Because I HATE egg...

Not at all. Either that or I never taste any at all.

Also, for anyone. Here's an eggnog recipe I found.

Originally posted by redditSpiced Egg Nog

3 eggs,

2 cups milk,

1 cup light cream (half & half),

1 cup sugar,

1/2 tsp cinnamon,

1/8 tsp nutmeg,

dash allspice,

1.  Mix sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg & allspice in a bowl.

2.  Separate egg whites into a large mixing bowl & yolks into a small bowl.

3.  Using electric mixer at high speed, whip egg whites till they form soft peaks.

4.  Mix half of sugar mixture into egg whites and slowly whip till they form stiff peaks.

5.  Using electric mixer, whip egg yolks till lemon-yellow color.

6.  Mix remaining sugar mixture into yolks.

7.  Fold yolk mixture into whites mixture.

8.  Add milk and cream to egg mixture and mix gently.

9.  Garnish with cinnamon dash.

10. Add liquor to taste.

Hm... that uses raw eggs, though. I guess it's good if you have decent eggs, though.

I like eggnog, but hot, steamy apple cider tops it. Seriously, I love that stuff.

December seems like it might be an okay month for me. Normally this is where I fall into a depression that can change from either major to slight depending on how the year went. This year it seems like I have my grades in a good sort, a decent amount of money made, singing in my school's Jazz choir, and I finally got the courage to disregard my fear of rejection to ask out this girl who I believe is the most amazing girl I've ever met.

	Originally posted by Red Lord Normally this is where I fall into a depression that can change from either major to slight depending on how the year went. I've been like this for as long as I can remember. I've tried to ignore it or to not think about it but no matter how hard I try, I can't. Thankfully this year was fantastic, especially at the tail end. That alone might change things around on how I feel. Never tried hot/warm egg nog before. ____________________

Normally Decembers make me very happy. This one is full of chaos and dischord at home, so not so much.

Yes, that is delicious... now I want some, damn you.

Though once I burnt my tongue on it...

	I tend to burn my mouth/tongue on a lot of things. Annoying. And now I want hot chocolate. My local grocery store, Publix, had buy one get one free a few months back. ____________________

I could go for some hot chocolate myself, actually. I dunno, I'm not sure how much I feel like actually making anything right now.

I could have hot chocolate from the vending machine at work but that's... not a great option.

As in an "chocolate-flavored crap in a small cup" option.

The worst hot chocolate I've ever had was in the library in secondary school. 50p for a cup of crap that was so horrible I couldn't drink. The librarian didn't give me my change, then when I asked her for my change the next day, she yelled at ME.

	I don't think I've ever have bad hot chocolate. That's just something that I don't want to experience. ____________________

I had hot chocolate years ago when we'd take camping trips.

Once, I was eating something else at the time and accidentally dropped a piece of food into the hot chocolate

	Smores are great when camping. I miss smores. And camping. Haven't gone camping since I was around ten or so. ____________________
