Eggnog

 Ah, the delightful swill of the holidays. I love this stuff, though I only drink it at the first of the season (where it's everywhere in stores) and then disappears the week before Christmas. 

I get it. People don't want to be left with unsold stock after the holiday is over. I've always hated that. Because on Xmas day, I'd love a glass but there's never any in stores a week before. 

I LONG time ago, we used to make it. My sister bought the "kit" we'd mix it up and right before they put the hooch in it, I'd take a glass. (not much on drinking) but we don't even do that anymore. I'd like some homemade eggnog too but these days, I'm too lazy to go through all that work if I only want a small cup of it in the end. 

Eggnog flavor? Meh. It's really hit or miss to me. Do you love eggnog? What's your favorite brand? For us it's the (virgin) Southern Comfort one. But I've always liked Bordan's version as well.
