The beauty of it is that you can make it as sweet as you like, or do not like. Musters... well, if there was a Musters episode where everyone looked like Marilyn Munster (which might induce it's own form of horror)... Actually, the group of folks at those Christmas Eve parties could not have been nicer or better hosts.<br/><br/>Anonymous-- I like your idea of adding the booze AFTER cooling. I will do that next time.<br/><br/>CMR-- I'm glad you liked the photo, too!<br/><br/>Kelli-- I still occasionally take of tipple of the store-bought stuff, too, if it is within my reach. I remember actually pouring the stuff over my Cheerios as a child when left unattended (which was quite often). Shuna– Thanks! I had fun taking that photo…

Ice Cream? Mmmmm Ici or Mitchell’s, I’d love to try then both!

Ahem.)<br/><br/>Now, I am very jealous that I have never had a "proper" egg nog. I love egg nog, even the grocery store variety (well, a GOOD grocery store variety, that is. Ahem.)
