Ingredients

Drink Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup eggnog
  • 1/4 cup Baileys Irish Cream
  • 1/4 cup milk

Toppings & Garnish

  • Whipped cream for topping
  • Ground nutmeg for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a shaker filled with ice, pour 1/2 cup eggnog, 1/4 cup Baileys Irish Cream, and 1/4 cup milk. This mix creates the rich and creamy base of your cocktail.
  2. Shake: Gently shake the mixture to chill and blend all the ingredients thoroughly without diluting it excessively.
  3. Strain: Strain the mixture into glasses to remove the ice, ensuring a smooth pour.
  4. Top and Garnish: Add a generous topping of whipped cream to each glass, then sprinkle ground nutmeg on top as a fragrant, festive garnish.

Notes

  • Use cold ingredients for best chilling results without over-dilution.
  • To make it non-alcoholic, simply omit the Baileys.
  • Freshly grated nutmeg enhances the aroma compared to pre-ground nutmeg.
  • For a richer taste, substitute milk with half-and-half or cream.
  • This cocktail is best served immediately after preparation for optimal flavor and texture.
