Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 cups eggnog
  • 1/2 cup peppermint schnapps
  • Crushed candy canes for garnish
  • Whipped cream for topping

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a pitcher, pour 2 cups of eggnog and 1/2 cup of peppermint schnapps. Stir thoroughly to blend the flavors together evenly.
  2. Serve and Garnish: Pour the mixture into serving glasses. Top each glass with a generous dollop of whipped cream, then sprinkle crushed candy canes over the whipped cream for a festive garnish.

Notes

  • For a non-alcoholic version, omit the peppermint schnapps and add a few drops of peppermint extract.
  • Use fresh whipped cream or store-bought depending on convenience.
  • Crushing candy canes finely helps them stick better to the whipped cream.
  • Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
