Re: Egg Nog
ugh, eggnog. i know people love it with a passion (!), but i just have never been a fan.
that said, it IS part of the holidayzz, so i accept it as an traditional past time of sorts.
anyone here tried out an Eggnog Latte at Starbucks? not fishing for compliments (as i work there) or flames, just curious as to how many of you 'nog drinkers have braved the foul drink and either hated it or loved it.
edit: i forgot to point out that i hate the Eggnog Latte as well. logic should follow that i hate eggnog in any form, but i just wanted to clarify. eggnog also SCREAMS when it is steamed.

Would you like it in a boat?
Would you like it with a goat?

I love egg nog, but this year it seems that the price went up anywhere from $1.00 - $2.00 a half gallon. I'm considering trying my hand at making my own, but i dunno if it'd be any cheaper.
Have any of you made your own egg nog and how does it compare to store/dairy bought?
My mother likes it to the point of buying it in cans off season. (Borden)

I got some last year. It WAS good. But then, I don't need dairy to enjoy it (in fact, that it's non-dairy makes it more enjoyable for me).

Re: Egg Nog
I picked up a quart from King Soopers this AM, Kroger brand I believe. The commercially prepared egg nog is so much thicker than the kind made at home.
Yum, I think I'll go pour myself a glass of egg nog.
I'll just leave the goat out.

I tried it once and didn't like it. With the exception of ice cream, i'm not a fan of egg nog flavored things. Although, i'm pretty sure the ice cream isn't just flavored.

Re: Egg Nog
add any or all of these: whipping cream, msg and tiny bits of corn starch, or very thoroughly grind up instant tapioca to minute size.
I am not a corn starch user, so my experience is out of date.

Ok, i made my first batch of egg nog. It was good, but it doesn't seem as flavorful as store bought, and it's not near as thick.
Which of these ingredients did you leave out:
milk, high fructose corn syrup, cream, corn syrup, whey, pasteurized egg yolks, non-fat milk, sugar, guar gum, carrageenan, natural and artificial flavors, nutmeg, mono and diglycerides, annatto or tumeric?

Hated it.
Nothing like a Latte or Egg Nog should taste like.
And I like both.

Re: Egg Nog
I used to just put eggs and milk and sugar in a blender, try some, and then add more of any ingredient that seemed underrepresented...
