Hey all! I've been pondering over how eggnog is traditionally served 😊. It seems like there's a split camp on this: some swear by enjoying it cold, straight from the fridge 🥶, while others love it warmed, finding comfort in its heat on a chilly day 🥵. Both methods have their charm, reflecting eggnog's versatility as a holiday drink. Cold brings out its refreshing, creamy texture, perfect for a festive toast. Warm, it turns into a cozy, comforting beverage, reminiscent of winter's joy 🤗. Curious to know, how do you prefer your eggnog? Does your family have a traditional way of serving it that sways your preference? Let's share and maybe try a new way this season! 🥳💗✨
 
I've always loved my eggnog warm, especially when the weather becomes cold. It's so comforting to hold a mug of hot eggnog and feel its creamy richness from inside out💕
 
Eggnog should alwyas be served hot!!! Cold eggnog is blasphemy on so many levels. No thanks yuck. It goes down the toilet if it is cold!

What's your recipe for a good eggnog? Care to share so I can prepare 8 months in advance? hehehehe
