Tears. I am in tears that was so funny! LMAO!
FWIW, I don't bother with complicated eggnog recipes. There's a pretty good packaged version put out by a smaller dairy around here, and I mix by the cup.
BADFREEPER'S LAZY EGGNOG
1 oz light rum (I use Appleton's)
2 oz Irish Cream (I use Bailey's)
1 oz Grand Marnier (I suppose one could use Cointreau, but why?)
1 cup store-bought eggnog
nutmeg
whipped cream
cinnamon
Pour rum and GM into directly into glass or mug you plan to drink from
Pour Bailey's into separate glass
Add eggnog to Bailey's and stir well with a small spoon or whisk
Slowly pour half of eggnog mixture in with booze and stir or whisk
Add remaining eggnog mix and 1/2 tsp nutmeg and stir or whisk
Top with whipped cream and sprinkle cinnamon to taste
Serves 2. Or Badfreeper. -HIC-
Hey wait, there's more than one cooking step in that re-sip... AND actual measurements... I can't handle that, dude...
I'll be the first to tell ya, I ain't much of a cook. At all. I eat Bush beans and Campbells chunky beef stew, the kind you don't even add water to. And for when I gotta carb up for running for something, I will make pastaroni. This is a great culinary feat for me because it involves the amalgamation of multiple ingredients in a prescribed manner over a time span greater than 5 minutes. (Thinking about it, I am pretty durn impressed with myself, actually... [back pat])
So when I want eggnog I hit the ABC store around the corner... How's THAT for lazy nog...
