Does this have the rich taste and creamy feel of regular eggnog? I'll look for it at the grocery store.
When I have dairy egg nog, I prefer the light to the regular as rich isn't really my thing. The almond nog is thick and creamy, but I am not going to blow sunshine - it isn't the same as dairy egg nog.

I've never had it, and thus can answer with confidence. No.

I had oat milk the other day for the first time. It tasted EXACTLY like milk ... that had been sitting on my granola for twenty minutes.

Nog?
I never understood the appeal of eggnog and yet I politely pretended to drink my mothers homemade eggnog year after year. I suspect it’s like mayonnaise- you either love it or hate it but few are on the fence

I love it but talk about a ton of WW points. I think diluting it with bourbon actually lowers the points.
In the WW theme, you are sooooo going down! ooooh actually up. ;)

On a more personal note, I have never really enjoyed egg nog, but I have no desire to swallow a slug either... just sayin.

This is pretty good. I'd drink it for breakfast but probably shouldn't.

Love it, love it, love it. I make mine with eggs and have done so for 48 years without any adverse issues. Eggs, sugar, light cream and rum. Mmmmmmm!

I had the guys from the local dairy drop in last week for some stuff. We needed time to get it ready. I mentioned that there was a discussion on eggnog on the internet. I also mentioned that the guy that owns the cheese factory often brings us fresh curd.

Well yesterday they came to pick up and brought 6l of Friday's production.

:D tell me how you really feel!

Brand rec: Broguire's in southern California, Los Angeles area, small local dairy brand.

Anyone have gogel-mogel? Raw egg yolks and sugar beat together until smooth, no graininess from sugar, similar to eggnog but no added liquid.
