homemade eggnog

Hey friends! I can hardly believe that Christmas is just around the corner. I thought I’d pop in with a quick and easy recipe that’s perfect for the holidays. Eggnog! My family never had eggnog growing up, and I never really thought I was a fan of it to be honest. Ha! This year I decided to make my own, since homemade usually is the way to go with a lot of things, and I loved it! You can easily customize the strength of the nog, and choose your own add ins per your own taste. Drink it cold, or drink it hot! My fave is warmed up with a bit of frothy milk spooned on top….so cozy!

They’re so fun to make, and also so easy to do ahead of time so that you’re not stressed out right before your guests arrive. I’m all about making the holidays as stress-free as possible! Add in a fresh baguette and some fancy crackers, and you’re all set.

rosemary shortbread
