The Holidays are fast approaching- choose wisely

All they had, well aside from a giant jug of southern comfort eggnog.

But it took me 5 minutes to find it and the cashier was all happy thinking I was having eggnog at work until I told her I was gonna destroy it

I said I was gonna blow it up vs shoot it 👽

There is one more at the range I didn’t need it and never shot it
 
Note to self: Don't share my step-grandfather's recipe for what I call Yule Tidal Wave

With a bartender's jigger:
1 part Southern Comfort
2 parts Sloe Gin
2 parts Sweet Vermouth
Mix with egg nog.

I was visiting my grandmother and step-grandfather for New Year's Eve. I was 18 at the time. Anyway, Into my second cup of egg nog, I put the keys on the counter and told them I would sleep on the couch. Not a problem.

Anyway, yeah, don't tell Frank that.

That just sounds nasty.
southern comfort......kinda pineapple'ish in taste
sloe gin.....berries ? sorta ?
sweet vermouth is like weak jaegermeister I guess would be best description.....herbal and shit

You intentionally mix those with milk/cream and eggs ?

Somethin hinky going down in Tejas.

It reads like a high schoolers drink that a buncha kids got together and raided their parents liquor cabinet of everything that wouldn't be noticed missing

Eggnog mixed 50/50 with Rootbeer = rootnog.

I prefer Bordens with Mug rootbeer. Bordens looks like it might be back but I don't know where.

Tying the older thread to this one.

Be that as it may, I liked it. My step-grandfather made that drink and I liked it. But I have not recreated that since then.

More of a whiskey neat with soda chaser is what I am these days. Wine gives me a headache, beer gives me a bigger waistline. Never much for the taste of vodka. Tequila is okay for mixed drinks, of which I do not do a lot of.

Although, I did once find a recipe called a Bannockburn.

Take a cocktail shaker and and fill with ice. Then add 2 of the shaker cap's worth of a scotch whiskey (get a blend, I would not necessarily spend a single malt on this.) Then add some black pepper and a dash of Worcestershire Sauce.

Fill the rest of the way with tomato juice. I would use low sodium vegetable juice.

Shake and then pour (ice included) into a tall cup or tumbler.

Sounds familiar, right? I nicknamed it Bloody Mary, Queen of the Scots.

Thankyouverymuch

Wife says the Borden Egg Nog is already at both HEB and Kroger. We dilute ours with Jameson. Didn't get any Triple Triple last time though Ireland though ...
