Merry Christmas from the Peanuts Gang and OutKast!
Well, ladies and germs it's the eve of Christmas Eve, and since many of you are either en route to see loved ones or you're running around doing last minute shopping (I'll see you at the checkout line shortly), I'll keep today's post brief. To our family, friends, loved ones, and supporters we want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
To help make this weekend a happy and boozy one, here's a great eggnog recipe:
Irish Eggnog
Makes 8 six-ounce servings
4 eggs
6 ounces Irish whiskey (or eyeball it)
2 ounces Irish Mist liqueur (eh, I'd eyeball this one too)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
4 cups (1 quart) milk
Freshly grated or ground nutmeg
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, and add the whiskey, Irish Mist, vanilla extract, and spices. Slowly add the milk and whisk until well combined. Ladle into Irish coffee glasses and sprinkle each with nutmeg.
If the idea of using raw eggs and milk weirds you out, you can always substitute it with 5 cups of store-bought nog instead. And if you're not a fan of whiskey (shame on you), you can substitute it with my personal favorite, Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum. It's delicious! The above recipe is from Mittie Hellmich's, "Ultimate Bar Book: The Comprehensive Guide to over 1,000 Cocktails," which is an exceptional bar book and would make a great last-minute stocking stuffer for the drunk in your life.
And, since I won't be posting this weekend, enjoy this video clip, because nothing says Merry Christmas quite like Charlie Brown and the Peanuts dancing to OutKast's "Hey Ya." Cheers, and Merry Christmas everyone!
