What Are Your Thoughts on Egg Nog?

Have never cared for whiskey or brandy in eggnog personally -- the tastes just seem to clash somehow. But I do like this one with liqueurs like Kahlua.

Hey Marge!
So, I took your advice and tonight I bought some of the exact egg nog you pictured in your post! ;D I just had a glass with a splash of Jack Daniels in it. Very tasty. The vanilla spice idea sounded nice. I usually really don't like Southern Comfort as a liquor... but I can actually imagine it might taste really good in this egg nog. I could see how Southern Comfort could have a really "holiday flavor" if mixed with egg nog. Normally I think Southern Comfort is too sweet.
I bet this egg nog tastes nice plain too... but I haven't tried it that way yet.
Thanks for the recommendation!

It sounds good to me, too. And Southern Comfort is an interesting possibility in eggnog.
Once, in high school, my friends and I spent an evening drinking a cocktail we'd heard about somewhere or other: Southern Comfort and Dr Pepper.
That, I cannot recommend.
:P :-X :P

Oh. my. God. You've gotta love the spirit of adventure (and idiocy) that is High School. ;D

If we've exhausted egg nog, I wonder if there is enough interest or controversy to discuss another holiday favorite of mine, hot spiced apple cider?

Sure! I love that, too. To me, that's more of an earlier fall drink -- apple season is the prime time. It has to be that cloudy unpasteurized cider, and to me it is -- of course -- made all the better by a shot of brandy.
And while we're on the hot-drink subject, I also love mulled wine.
