    Homemade Eggnog

    Anyone here make their own eggnog? I haven't tried it yet but it could be fun. I could also thin it out a bit, since straight eggnog is too rich for me.

    I haven't made it myself but when I was in Austria celebrating my wedding anniversary with my husband, the lady we were staying with presented me with a bottle of her home made Advokaat, which is the same as eggnog only it contains brandy. It was delicious!

    That's neat; what a nice lady. I actually prefer nonalcoholic eggnog in general, but I've never tried it with brandy, so I may have to check that out.

    I have to say that I have never had eggnog before. I think the main reason I haven't tried it is because it seems to be too rich and sweet. I don't know that I have a traditional drink in mind when it comes to Christmas. However, I wouldn't mind trying it if there is some brandy involved.

    I gain a lot of weight at Christmas time and it is not the food. My biggest guilty pleasure is eggnog. Yummy!!!

    Rita, it is extremely rich and sweet. I mix it with skim milk to cut that down a bit.

    Moonlight, yes, eggnog is killer for the waistline. I try to limit myself.
