Hot cocoa is favorite winter drink. Eggnog is favorite holiday drink. We have also enjoyed the Cherry mulled wine and the Apple Punch, warmed, from Aldi.
We also enjoy mulled apple cider, and Jack Daniels Winterjack also.
I’m on board with the eggnog! I buy one quart in December and that’s it for the year, truly a holiday thing. I don’t drink alcohol so if anyone has a good eggnog mocktail I’d love to hear about it!
@Lynnerizer That’s exactly what i do, except i stick with the “light” version cuz i can’t handle the richness of full-fat dairy, plus it’s not great for my already-terrible arteries. Same goes for the booze, i suppose.
@kostia I’m with you! Except for a little commercially-produced eggnog once a year, which is basically just a seasonally-spiced milkshake, those are my beverages of choice year-round, except my preferences are cold brew & Fresca. (Not combined! )
@bayportbob@kitkat34@kostia I’ve heard it’s popular in cocktails & stuff, but i started drinking it when i was trying to cut down on my caffeine intake. I don’t really care for Sprite & 7-Up, so Fresca was one of the few choices left to fill my carbonation fix. I also like black cherry flavored sparkling water for a little variety. What can i say, I’m a wild woman!
Scotch. Just like in the summer. And spring. Oh, and fall.
But Bourbon, tequila, mezcal, and various other spirits will do as well.
And wine.
But also beer.

Eggnog with a little something that bites is the best. The biting part is entirely up to the imbiber.
@hchavers Good eggnog (not too much added junk, such as fructose or fats) + good quality bourbon or scotch.
@hchavers So you like to sit down with a cup of 'nog, in the company of a small yappy dog or perhaps a mosquito? That’s weird. I’m just sayin…
@hchavers @shahnm I’m guessing rabid weasel.

Basically Puerto Rican Coconut Eggnog with rum

I want each of the things listed, depending on the moment. Why the fuck are people obsessed with choosing a single favorite?
/giphy why?
@joelmw How the fuck else do you categorize people into easily definable groups??

Given the limitations of the question: eggnog.
@shahnm
Indeed
/giphy I suppose you have a point
Eggnog Chai tea but only how my friend made it when she owned her coffee shop.

Hot butter rum!
Can I just keep drinking iced coffee and Diet Coke? Eggnog and mulled wine and hot toddies or whatever are just nasty.

@ircon96 @kostia hmmmm… fresca… haven’t heard anyone say that was a favorite forever now.
@bayportbob @ircon96 @kostia do they still make Fresca??!
