Egg Nog: Pro or Con

[cattyfan]

There are few people I know who are ambivalent about this festive holiday beverage. Where do you stand?

I'm pro egg nog, only if it comes with a shot of brandy or rum and a light dusting of nutmeg.

:cheers:

Pro! Very Pro! There should be a law making it available year round!

Put some Bacardi 151 in it, and I'm good to go.:Shimei:

I love it but only if it's the good, expensive kind from the dairy! That stuff you buy at the store in the 1/2 gallon milk-like containers... wretched :vomit: Oh, and it has to be super cold :cheers:

 

[PKevman]

I really like it, but minus the alcohol.

Ahh... I see I'm the only one who hasn't tried it. Fab.

I have heard of it, but you didn't have an option for "seen it on TV".

What's actually in it?

Egg Nog is a sweetened dairy-based beverage made with milk, cream, sugar, and beaten eggs.

I'm pro-nog. I love homemade nog.

Fake nog that's made from high-fructose corn syrup, guar gum, various ingredients that are hard to pronounce, and "egg base", is an abomination. I think many people think they are anti-nog because this is the only nog they know.

If it's called "holiday nog," it's not egg nog. If it's called "egg nog," it's still probably not egg nog if you're getting it from a grocery store. Read the ingredients.

Good nog has eggs, cream, milk, sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon. And booze, if you like. No weird stuff.

Summer before last, my daughter and I had a craving for egg nog. We searched on line and found a few recipes for it. Its not that hard to make, we had a good time making it and it tasted pretty good too. Ice cold egg nog on a hot sunny June afternoon was a special treat!

I like egg nog better now that my wife taught me that I should mix it with some milk.

We love egg nog here. I've never had the alcoholic version (I developed quite a taste for egg nog when I was pregnant.). But, one dairy here makes egg nog that tastes like it has rum in it. I love that stuff!

Milk makes me sick I can’t even pore it for my kids.

I just had a tall glass of egg nog. Who says the power of suggestion doesn't work?

I am one of those few ambivalent people, it seems.

I have only had egg nog once, though. Maybe if I had more, I could take a stronger stand on the issue.
