Is your Christmas drink of choice eggnog? I’m sure you have your own special recipe, but perhaps this year, you should try this one 😉

Armed with the task of creating ‘The Best Christmas Eggnog’ for Rock Chic Eggs, I roped in Ewen to help make this the ultimate eggnog. Rock Chic Eggs are the ultimate free-range eggs on the market. Check out their website to see just how free and happy this chickens are, and why they are producing some of the best eggs money can buy.

We tried many different liquors that were supplied and in my own personal collection. Whilst we found Amaretto (an almond flavoured liquor) worked very well, if you can get your hands on some Bassano Grappa Tagliatella (35%), this will give you The Best Christmas Eggnog. We were supplied some by www.thewogwiththegrog.com.au
