I want to try serving egg nog on Christmas Eve this year.

Anyone drink/like it??

What should I "spike" it with?????
 
If you want to switch it up, try the Puerto Rican version of spiked egg nog...."Coguito". It`s got more coconut taste so I would describe it as if Pina Colada and Egg Nog had a baby lol. The coconut and condensed milk allow you to conceal extra ounces of rum in the drink. Just make sure you confiscate keys since it`s one of the "sneak up on you" drinks. And be sure to let it sit in the fridge for a couple of days before you need it to allow all the flavors to integrate together.

Im an eggnog addict
I drink a couple quarts a day a couple quarts a day when I have it
Snider`s is still my favorite
The chocolate eggnog taste like melted ice cream

I made.my first home made batch last year...was ok, but I`ll be going on experiment two..gonna add a couple more ingredients this time around
 
I saw someone on FB who put Cherry Coke in their Egg Nog and said it was amazing. Anyone tried this?

if you want to get a nice balance of flavours you can also try to mix in Dark Spiced Rum and VSOP.

Vega - that sounds deadly. Id have to try that but since I don`t drink much anymore pretty sure one of those would put me out for the night.

Eggnog needs rum bu this
one sounds really good!
 
So just a follow up here since it`s getting that much closer to Christmas.

I`ve become pretty good friends w the guy that owns the package store down the street because...well, because I`m in there all the time.

Anyway, he told me the "best" egg nog is actually made w a blend of brandy, rum and whiskey. Rather than buying three different bottles, he suggested this stuff called Pennsylvania Dutch Egg Nog. And while I always thought the Pennsylvania Dutch were straight laced Amish for the most part - I guess the make some pretty potent egg nog. He said it`s very popular in the store and it always sells out every year so I grabbed two bottles.

After doing a bit of research on the stuff - I guess it`s pretty popular.

I haven`t tried it yet. Waiting until Saturday.

Just throwing this out there for anyone that might want to serve some high octane egg nog at Christmas.

^^^Beat me to it. Coquito is delicious, very easy to make, and will DEFINITELY sneak up on you after sipping a couple of glasses and nothing happening . I gave some to a friend who`s never had it and he was amazed by it and asked me to make him a bottle.

This thread reminds me I need to make my batch, I`m hitting the store today to get the stuff.
