Time to bump this seasonal topic. It's been a good thread, and newer members might enjoy reading it all, as well as the previous one pointed to above, to get in the eggnog mood.
Cheers

Jeff, I thought you died.
Where ya been?
Are you sure this is really you?
By the way, the new Evan Williams bourbon eggnog gets two big thumbs up from my wife, a true eggnog lover and expert. She said "THAT'S what it's supposed to tasted like!"
I am having a hard time finding the EW Eggnog though. Everytime I visit, they are sold out or have a couple bottles on hold for someone else. Its looking like I might not get any this year! :shocked:
Had my first Calder's eggnog and bourbon on Thanksgiving night, thanks to my sister-in-law.
No reason to make your own when Calder's is available.
The new Knob Creek gift pack with flask has an eggnog recipe on the box. I've never done eggnog myself, but this year I'm going to try it. I might start with something simple like that Calder's Oscar recommends so all I have to do is add bourbon.
Since Heaven Hill also makes the Christian Brothers Egg Nog, I wonder if it's the exact same nog, just switching brandy for bourbon for the Evan Williams.
To me, egg nog is like deep fried bacon and for the same reason: so good and yet so wrong.
