@catlover7777 Yes. I buy the low fat and it's yummy. I don't put alcohol in mine. It's sooo good.

It has to have a lot of booze in it to offset that sweetness for me. I remember as a kid my mom and dad making the homemade eggnog. They put vanilla ice cream and lots of nutmeg with a splash of bourbon.

TBH, I've never had it.

But I'd still have to say no.

Does it actually have eggs in it? I think that's the main thing that grosses me out when I think of it. Or milk? Both of those things skeeve me out and then add some alcohol and I cannot imagine it tasting good.

That's my silly take, anyway.

I wouldn't say I LOVE it, but I like it enough to have a few glasses around Christmastime. Most people I know don't care for it.

Edited to add: That glass pictured looks delicious.

Yes I like it very much--with a shot of brandy or in ice cream, sugar cookies, cake, fudge----

I LOVE ice cold eggnog, and make my own. Store-bought is much too rich for my liking, with a sometimes heavy presence of nutmeg; though I will savor it too, in a pinch.😊

Yes I do.

Anyway I can get it.

A few years ago Friendly's had a limited edition Eggnog Ice Cream in the grocery store and Delizza had Eggnog Cream Puffs. I haven't seen either.

I do, and every year I start purchasing, just to drink no alcohol added until the holiday period ends. I went grocery shopping this morning and was bummed because I thought that I would be able to get one more container for year end, and nope it's all gone. When I finish my current container that will sadly be it for me until the end of next year.

I don't like the idea of possibly having raw eggs in it; several recipes I have seen lately don't involve any cooking at all; no thanks. DH loves it. I buy him a quart each Christmastime and he's happy. My great aunt used to make eggnog every Christmas. I know she would use lots of heavy cream and eggs and cook in a saucepan. Always nutmeg sprinkled on top with a tiny scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top. No wonder I liked it! No booze was even necessary. Wish I had her recipe.

DH loves it and I like a little. We buy the low fat for obvious reasons, but it's a little less rich which I like better. I can eat any dessert, but eggnog can get too rich for me.

Yes, I love eggnog, but without the alcohol. I have a recipe with pasteurized eggs that is delicious and low carb.

My favorite breakfast shake is the eggnog flavor.

Eggnog cheesecake is my Christmas jam!

No, but I buy 2 small containers of it each season for my mother and husband to enjoy.

I made my own one year and it was so strong. No one liked it so I ended up throwing it out. I felt like trying the grocery market brand and it wasn't bad. I add my own little spike (if needed) and spice it up. Sometimes I use flavored creamer too.

Yes I do! Store bought. I add skim milk to dilute the sweetness and add a little brandy.
yummy!

I used to love it, but it's not something I choose to consume anymore.

We like Evan Williams Eggnog for the Holidays. It comes with the appropriate alcohol in it. We grate a fresh nutmeg nut on top.
