Cheers: Eggnog Cocktail

Eggnog is one of those love-it-or-hate-it holiday drinks. Some aficionados adore this thick, sweet drink, others abhor it as another “fruitcake” tradition—something we make not because we like it, but because it’s traditional. Eggnog’s origins are debated, although it’s generally believed to have originated in Britain as an aristocratic holiday treat, journeying over to the new world in the18th century with our ancestors. The availability of rum and plentiful farm and dairy products on this side of the Atlantic made the drink’s popularity explode, and since then it’s been a staple of Christmastime in the United States.
