"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas." With everyone buying their trees and decorating for the holidays, there are certain traditions to be upheld. For instance, my family drinks egg nog while decorating the Christmas tree. I'm sure we're not the only ones, and certain people are particular about which brand to buy. My family will only accept Hood Golden Egg Nog.

Phil gave me the idea to make one myself! Here’s the recipe if you’d like to try it at home!

Ingredients:

12 med egg yolks

1.5 cups granulated sugar

qt whole milk

2 cups heavy cream

tsp nutmeg

tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

Blend yolks and sugar in a blender for 2 mins

Whisk in milk and cream until sugar dissolves

Add spice to taste

Chill a few hours

(To spike: 1 cup of rum)

PS - National Egg Nog Day is December 24th, aka Christmas Eve.
