Eggnog

Eggnog is a rich, creamy holiday beverage traditionally made from milk or cream, beaten eggs, sugar and warming spices such as nutmeg and cinnamon; some versions are finished with a splash of rum or brandy. It is a relatively protein-containing drink, providing about 4.55g of protein per 100g thanks to the milk and eggs. While it supplies useful protein and minerals from dairy and eggs, commercial eggnogs are typically high in added sugar and saturated fat and contain little fiber or plant antioxidants; homemade or reduced‑sugar versions let you keep the flavor while cutting excess sugar and fat.
