My favorite is Southern Comfort's Vanilla Spice... yummmy! :) moeee 12-10-2006, 09:02 PM Hot Chocolate. tdf4077 12-10-2006, 09:02 PM not really much of an egg nog fan...but egg nog fudge is good! Brian Damage 12-10-2006, 09:06 PM Egg Nog!!! REPRESENT! lol Jo_Luvs_Ketchup 12-10-2006, 09:26 PM Hot chocolate, with extra marshmallows, hmmmmmm. Lex Luthor 12-10-2006, 09:40 PM Egg Nog!!! REPRESENT! lol :yeahthat ~LadyJess~ 12-10-2006, 09:59 PM Hot chocolate because I don't like egg nog. Jonathan 12-10-2006, 10:05 PM Egg nog. I really like it. I first got into it a couple of years ago, and it is usually really easy to find it here in the South. They should make it year-round though. It is FANTASTIC. Yummmo! :liplick: snl 70s show fan 12-10-2006, 11:02 PM hot chocolate i dont like eggnog at all FOLrocks1 12-10-2006, 11:03 PM Eggnog. Although I love hot chocolate. But this time of the year is the only time for good eggnog so I enjoy it while it's here. TheHappyBurgerMeister 12-11-2006, 01:03 AM I love hot chocolate, not just on Christmas eve, but all the time in winter. Actually we usually make punch or some "fancy" holiday drink for Christmas eve. I also love chamomile tea in the winter! Yooch 12-11-2006, 01:09 AM I like 'em both. DLevine2 12-11-2006, 08:26 AM Hot chocolate with marshmallows.;) Already Gone 12-11-2006, 09:02 AM I prefer coffee or tea on Christmas Eve. Anything with alot of caffeine to keep me wired until after we open our presents. I'll have to find a place that sells egg nog flavored coffee. :liplick: Kay Scarpetta 12-11-2006, 01:46 PM Eggnog, minus the rum. I think rum or any other alcohol ruins it. Number 9 Dream 12-11-2006, 01:56 PM On Christmas Eve, definitely egg nog! :) It's like a tradition for the holidays around here (although I think I prefer hot chocolate more, but I can drink that any time I want. Peppermint hot chocolate from 7-11 is the best!) Janice 12-11-2006, 02:14 PM Eggnog. Luckily it's not sold year-round. It's sooooo fattening. Tundra Wolf 12-11-2006, 04:29 PM Eggnog's okay, but I'd take hot chocolate over it anyday. ChristineES 12-11-2006, 06:17 PM I love eggnog. But I am also a chocoholic. Sharop 12-11-2006, 06:22 PM I don't think I've ever had either on Christmas Day. I like hot chocolate a lot, though. I've never tried eggnog - it's one of those things I'd like to try someday. Doesn't it have alcohol in it? Kay Scarpetta 12-11-2006, 06:34 PM I've never tried eggnog - it's one of those things I'd like to try someday. Doesn't it have alcohol in it? If you make it homemade, many people add alcohol to it. Rum and brandy are common. I, personally, like the kind you buy in the grocery store (Hood, for all you New Englanders). It's got a hint of rum flavoring in it, but no actual alcohol. I think actual alcohol ruins the taste of it. Mr. Television 12-12-2006, 12:45 AM I'm addicted to EGG NOG. :lol: James 12-12-2006, 04:28 AM I voted for hot chocolate, on account of never before having eggnog.

Brad Russ 12-12-2006, 12:01 PM Egg Nog is awesome, but you just have to have a glass of hot chocolate on Christmas Eve!! On a cold Christmas Eve, I want something warm and chocolaty. Sometimes I even put whipped cream on top. Yum! Kay Scarpetta 12-12-2006, 01:19 PM I don't drink alcohol, so I'd probably stick with the store stuff. Do they sell it in England? Good question. They should... it did originate in Europe in like, the stone days, so I'd imagine so. Try your local grocery. Janice 12-12-2006, 02:39 PM Another festive beverage is hot apple cider with a cinnamon stick in it. Some add Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. Yummy. :happyface Kay Scarpetta 12-12-2006, 02:50 PM Another festive beverage is hot apple cider with a cinnamon stick in it. Some add Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. Yummy. :happyface I LOVE apple cider, and I am fond of CM, but together? Iccck. I'll add that on my list to try... Janice 12-12-2006, 02:57 PM I LOVE apple cider, and I am fond of CM, but together? Iccck. I'll add that on my list to try... I used to tend bar and Captain Morgan's hot Spiced Cider sold like you wouldn't believe. It was actually a CM's holiday marketing promotion...they had posters and table tents to put on the bar and dinner tables, pushing them. They had a catchy name for them, but I can't remember. We had clear tall mugs. We'd run the rim under water, then stick it in a bowl of cinnamon sugar so it would have a pretty and tasty rim...then add the Captain's and hot cider...stick in a cinnamon stick and charge five bucks for it. We could barely keep up with them. Already Gone 12-12-2006, 03:02 PM Egg Nog is awesome, but you just have to have a glass of hot chocolate on Christmas Eve!! On a cold Christmas Eve, I want something warm and chocolaty. Sometimes I even put whipped cream on top. Yum! That's delicious, I like it with miniature marshmallows too.

Especially the cinnimon sugar part... I'd lick it off and leave the drink :lol: :lol: I used to make one for myself while I was working, minus the rum. I'd spend half the time chipping the rim....it's like candy. LuLu Rogers 12-12-2006, 04:26 PM I've never had eggnog so I had to go with hot chocolate, though I do like hot apple cider as well. Yum! Sharop 12-12-2006, 07:42 PM Good question. They should... it did originate in Europe in like, the stone days, so I'd imagine so. Try your local grocery. I'll take a look. I'll also look for some marmite, since I haven't had that in ages. I can't even remember what it tastes like, and people say it's one of those things people either love or hate. It's only sold in Britain, so only British people tend to know what it is - it's a kind of black paste that people put on toast a lot. I believe Australia has something similar called vegemite. swedeace 12-12-2006, 11:37 PM Eggnog! That's the Christmas-time drink! I always look forward to eggnog around this time. :rock: In fact, now I am craving it! Luckily, I have half a gallon in my refrigerator! *pours herself a glass of eggnog after posting this* :lol: I'm actually quite surprised eggnog is not winning in the poll. Wow.... |
