Holiday Drinks

I found this yummy website full of drink recipes!!!
Their holiday section look especially delicious!

Here is one I thought looked good:

Chocolate whip



4 oz. chocolate milk
2 oz. cold coffee
whipped cream
shaved chocolate

Optional
1 oz. Bailey's
(for an individual cocktail)

Directions:
Fill a tall glass with ice. Add 4 oz. chocolate milk and 2 oz. cold coffee. Top with whipped cream and garnish with shaved chocolate.

Homemade Egg Nog

Delicious Nog!

6 Large eggs
3/4 c Sugar
1 1/2 c Brandy
1/2 c Rum
4 c Milk
4 c Cream
1/2 c Icing sugar
Nutmeg to sprinkle

Separate the yolks from the whites of the eggs. Beat the yolks slowly while simultaneously adding the sugar; do this until the mixture is pale and golden. Now slowly add in the brandy and rum, then beat in the milk and half the cream.

Set aside until just before serving, then whisk the egg whites until stiff and fold them into the eggnog mixture. Whip the remaining cream and icing sugar until thick. Top each glass of eggnog with whipped cream and a shake of nutmeg. This yields eight servings.

Enjoy!
