My mom always served it up on the day we decorated the tree and always topped it with freshly grated nutmeg. Just a whiff of nutmeg aroma triggers very lovely memories.

I have a small carton of it, in my refrigerator, and will be offering it to tonight's dinner guests. Who knows - maybe someone will change their opinion.

I've never tried it with Kahlua but I've got a bottle, so that will change, today. It might help reinforce me for the chaos ahead.

Can’t get enough of it.

I take a sip every now and then, but I am watching calories, so .... a sip is all I have. I do love it, though.

OTOH, there are superb recipes for what you can do for any leftover stuff, including french toast.

Pour a shot of bourbon over a couple of ice cubes.

Add the eggnog. Gently stir.

Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top.

Drink.

Repeat often.

Breakfast of champions!

('flavoring' is Bourbon)

Preferably with a nice slice of coconut cake

Once it's on closeout I bring home 8-10 quarts and try to make it last until March. But by then the waist is growing.
