Bourbon Eggnog
A delicious combination of eggnog and bourbon! A classic holiday cocktail with a rich, creamy flavor and a hint of baking spices.
Time to make: 5 minutesServes: 1
A good bourbon, such as Bulleit, already has notes of baking spices in its flavor profile, so you can’t go wrong with adding it to eggnog. You can use the basic ratio for this recipe to scale up for larger batches. For most cocktails, you’re not going to want to add ground spices directly to the drink (see infusions below for an option), as they risk making the drink taste gritty, but with a thick mixer like eggnog, they blend in beautifully. Consider also ground cinnamon, allspice or pumpkin spices.
Ingredients
- 1 oz. Bulleit Bourbon
- 4 oz. Eggnog, Chilled
- 1/8 tsp. Ground Nutmeg
