Eggnog is a classic holiday beverage that dates back to the 17th century, originating as a warm, rich drink enjoyed by the British aristocracy. Traditionally made with a blend of eggs, milk, cream, sugar, and spices like nutmeg and cinnamon, Eggnog often includes spirits such as brandy, rum, or whiskey to give it a warm, boozy kick. Over time, it became a festive staple in the United States, especially during the winter holidays, serving as a comforting and indulgent treat.
