Lots of recipes. I've had some that I liked. Most is too thick and rich for me too - almost like drinking overly sweet pudding. Never tried cutting it with milk. I can see how that would improve it - at least for my taste.

Straight up. Sometimes I even pour it in a glass first.

It is pretty rich though. A swig or two a day is about all my stomach will handle.

Straight. If I feel the need for an alcoholic egg nog.... I use it as a chaser.

Ii get a few half gallons every year around Thanksgiving and Christmas. I drink it straight. I know it's not good for me but I like it. I haven't had the alcohol kind so I don't know if that's any good. I think it should be made year round.

Straight for me or with a shot of rum added. Best way is with a nice thick slice of the often hated Fruitcake! Fruitcake, that's a whole thread of its own! I love the fruit cake and mincemeat pie! That combo of deserts are all mine, nobody else touch them....

I add nutmeg. I never knew eggnog didn’t have nutmeg in it till I saw grandma making it one day.

A couple evenings ago I figured I'd try a shot of Kahlua in a cup of eggnog, just to be sure I repeated the experiment again last evening, yep worked pretty good I thought

I wish I hadn't pondered the raw eggs...in the age of artificial colors and flavors. Aargh.

1/3 water 2/3 eggnog and a shot of Crown Royal or dark rum and warmed.

I had to stop drinking it a few years ago. I started drinking Egg Nog about Dec 15 when it started coming into the store very year and go to Jan 30. Gained to much weight in 45 days. MD

When you guys talk about cutting it with milk I'm not sure what you mean. Are you talking about mixing milk with that commercial stuff in a carton that they call Eggnog?
If so, that is why many people don't like eggnog. If it comes premixed from the grocery store it is NOT eggnog.

This recipe is delicious. I like it with about medium thickness and without whiskey.
