Egg nog: Nectar of the gods or evil phlegmy goo?

So...

No one else in this thread has said Screw It and just gone out and bought Advocaat?

I do find it fairly foul. I'll take just the bourbon and skip all those calories.

so I tried the Almond Nog--- not too bad-- much lighter than real egg nog. I did add more nutmeg.. adding some Rum Chata too..

Hello December it's great to see ya. Any version of egg nog is a giant no me gusta. Rumchata, rumchata with Fireball or this is what makes our December go round.

Figured this joke was fitting on this thread..

I'm not a beer drinker to begin with but this seems really odd to me.

I did the same. Not bad... still not something I'll get again I don't think, but not bad.

The wife asked a couple of days ago whether she should buy some egg nog at the store. Having just read this thread I slyly suggested that home made would probably taste a lot better. One thing I love about my wife is that she's always up for trying out new stuff. She made a dairy based batch for me and a coconut milk based batch for herself. Both were delish but you just can't beat real milk-fat for taste and mouth feel.

I added extra nutmeg that helped a lot. I rationalized it as saving calories for something else. LOL

2000-5000psi can emulsify and homogenize a lot of palm kernel oil and sugar solution.

Is this just the early-season trial version? When does the opportunity arise to get it from a real dairy?

While at Home Depot yesterday I was scratching my head to see 3/4 of their seasonal display was Christmas and the tiny set up for Halloween.
AT the grocery store pepermint bark is on display everywhere.
Now egg nog. Too soon.

'Model Dairy' doesn't sound Soviet. At all, nossir.

Too soon.

This is one holiday tradition that I can get behind if it came out in August.

Phlegmy Goo for you and me!

I love B. Dylan Hollis's videos. I often have to watch them twice to pick up all of the innuendoes.

He has a new one out, Egg Nog Pie, that sounds really interesting. IIRC, we don't post links to social media on this site. Instead, just go to FB, search for B. Dylan Hollis, and scroll down to posts from 5 days ago, or around December 2.

In another video, I heard him say that rum is the best liquor for egg nog.

His cookbook, Baking Yesteryear, is a #1 NYT bestseller.

I like him already.

But I really think adding dry sherry adds a superb extra dimension.

Phlegmy Goo for you and me!

If I was a morning drinker, eggnog with brandy would make an excellent coffee creamer. But, I’m just guessing
