Which Alcohol Goes Best With Eggnog

I personally find that bourbon goes really well with eggnog. Now if you have another idea you are welcome to replace it with another liqueur if you prefer. Brandy, whiskey, scotch, spiced rum, are all great as well. 

What Is Eggnog Made Of 

You will find true traditional eggnog is made with cream or milk, raw eggs, and sugar. Then you will find you can get eggnog with spices that offer rich flavor. Then many add-in alcohol to serve up your friends.  

Why Is Eggnog A Christmas Thing 

Eggnog is dated back to the British area wherein the winter they would create a warm milk drink with eggs and add in spices. The British would add in some expensive liquors to prevent it from spoiling.  

Can You Make This Gingerbread Eggnog Cocktail Ahead Of Time 

You will want the flavors to chill for two hours so this is a great way to make ahead, mix and then pour into glasses and serve. I made this for a holiday party last year and it was one of the items that were a talk of the party. Whip this up and enjoy it. 

Can I Make My Own Eggnog For This Cocktail 

Absolutely. If you want to make homemade eggnog go right ahead. If you prefer to buy eggnog go ahead and do that. This is all about personal preference. For a quick cocktail just buy quality eggnog since it will stand out in the drink.
