In keeping with the holiday theme, I fondly remember my mother's homemade egg nog she'd make every year for us (when we were old enough, of course
). It was her own recipe, but basically the same as all the others (except it seemed like she added enough bourbon and brandy to choke a rhino), mixing cream, eggs, sugar and liquor into a slurry of holiday heaven. It was the best alcoholic beverage I've ever had. I miss your egg nog, Mom, and miss you even more.
Anyone else dare to make their own nog?
