I would love to try eggnog one day :P I just had ton of tangerines and gingerbread cookies. Oh I also did absolutely nothing. I was even naughty and let my VP recharge to 100% couple of times. So much freedom and no scrolling through tags. Haha.
I am so happy to be back at it :)
I have never had eggnog either actually. I did eat a lot of ham but my VP never recharged.
I am glad you guys are back but my VP is already gone again :D
I'm afraid that eggnog may be perceived now as a formality that won't be missed. Unless it's done right, it's just mmeh but fully loaded, one or two cups is satisfying and one of those distinct Holiday experiences.
Oh eggnog. I have had the genuine article, or close enough- so I can offer up a little review of said substance. It's indulgent, like most traditional Christmas holiday stuff and it's usually the kind of thing you serve in at-home parties or a family get together. Understand that store bought eggnog is not complete. It is simply the base prepared for your convenience so don't judge eggnog on that because it would be like judging a cake by tasting the uncooked batter. Done proper (a little less egg and a lot more nog), the dense, creamy texture should firmly hit your lips and nostrils with "spirit", better known as rum vapor, as the velvety smooth and moderately sweet creme buffers the intensity, smoothing over the palate leaving the distinct, and wonderful (in my opinion) essence of nutmeg. If you've ever had a White Russian then it's not far off but this is far more viscous so less likely to get you in trouble. Over indulging in eggnog is akin to eating too much hotel food. Just don't, but you won't because a little goes a long way.
