Some people
Believe that this name is of English derivation and that
‘nog’ comes from the word ‘noggin’ a small drinking
vessel with an upright handle. On the other hand, there are
those who believe that the name is a result of joining the
sounds of egg ‘n grog. from whatever source, the drink
itself is American dating back to about 1775, In the early
days, eggnog was associated with traveling and social
functions. Today it is principally associated with Easter,
Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years.
Traditionally,
the liquors used in eggnog have been rum and brandy. However,
whiskey,, sherry, ale and cider may be used some of the early
recipes called for milking the cow into the liquor but today
fortunately this is unnecessary as simpler methods are now
available There are excellent nonalcoholic These are available
during the holiday season from virtually all dairy companies

listed alphabetically in this book (for those who prefer to
