Eggnog
Well, it has come to this: I'm too lazy to go to the store to satisfy my eggnog craving.
But the upside is that it's unbelievably easy and cheap to make your own. I don't know why i even bother with that store bought crap.
NOTE: Storebought anything is never, ever, as good or as healthy as homemade / done fresh. So go wash your hands and start cooking.
Put in a jar and refrigerate. It's delish. Grind a little nutmeg over the top of each glass you serve, from a real nutmeg if possible, not that pre-ground-to-dust crap (see note above).

Jadenog:
Pour about 750 mL of milk into a sauce pan over medium heat
In a bowl mix,
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 tsp real vanilla extract
3 tbsp honey (or to taste... experiment often)
1 tbsp brandy, rum or other such holiday booze.
Pour egg mixture into the milk, stirring constantly. Reduce heat.
Taste-test here. These are your flavours. Not sweet enough for you? Add a little more honey/sugar.
In another bowl, beat 2 egg whites until light and frothy. Fold into cooled milk mixture.

Chinchin!
