Why is Egg Nog only available at Christmastime?

Answer 1

Egg Nog is a traditional drink!

The beverage was simply intended as a winter treat. In the 1800s, eggnog was considered a social drink and was made in large quantities for holiday parties. It was drunk through the winter, and, in Baltimore, young men would go from house to house to drink eggnog with friends on New Year's Day. But it was always common to toast to people's good health with eggnog on Christmas Day, and it seems that this is the only part of eggnog's history we have left. Even the American Egg Board can't tell us why we only drink eggnog at Christmas.

HAHA. I've never actually tried it, but its common in cartoons. :]

Answer 2

It's a holiday drink. You can make it yourself all year long but it is heavy with fat unless you buy the lowfat kind. Like Chrristmas time is when people eat mince tarts or pies. Eggnog obviously has eggs I think milk or cream. Google Eggnog and you'll probably find a lot of recipes.

i'm able to enable you comprehend the type to make so which you're able to do it your self then you definitely can do it whenever you prefer, enable me see if I remember this i think of it is two eggs whip them up in a bowl till then are thick making use of a whisk, upload in 2 cups of low fat milk whipping it in a splash at a time upload some nutmeg and cinnamon to style and if needed some brandy and a a million/2tsp vanilla common as would nicely be. Now enable me see if I have been on condition that suitable...

Answer 4

I`ve always thought that eggnog is only available at christmas is beacause if it was available all year long it wouldn`t be as cool. But it seems to be coming out earlier and earlier every year so maybe someday it will be available year round.
