About Eggnog

Eggnog is a historic festive drink that has its roots in Europe, becoming particularly popular in the United States during the holiday season. This creamy beverage is made by blending milk and cream with sugar, beaten eggs, and flavoring agents like nutmeg and vanilla. It is known for its indulgent and rich texture, making it a cozy treat during cooler months.

This beverage typically has high calorie content due to its rich dairy and egg base. It's also a source of protein and provides calcium. People often enjoy eggnog at parties and gatherings, and it sometimes features alcoholic ingredients like rum or whiskey for an adult twist.

Those with dietary restrictions, especially regarding cholesterol or dairy, may want to avoid it or seek alternatives. If you're mindful of sugar intake, note that eggnog can contain significant amounts of total sugars, making it a treat to enjoy in moderation.
