Ooh. I might just have to try some of that. (The SB, in UCSB, for the country folks, means Santa Barbara.) That is, after I fry up the turkey, try some of TR's custom turkey recipe, watch some football, and smoke a cigar.

I have HEARD that this works best with Reed's Brand Jamaican Ginger beer, Preferrably the premium type with the green cap, but any will work. Also, sub some decent Rye whiskey for the Vodka and it gets two thumbs up

Fill the rest of the glass with good eggnog!

This one is so smooth...One taste of this and you feel sorry for all those who haven't had a Tequila Eggnog, Knifemaker style.

Decided I needed to test this !
Combined your suggestion (Casa Noble Anejo) with TR's suggestion of Evan Williams eggnog.......this is really good !

Most feel that the EW is pretty stout to begin with.

Harsey, we may have a new drinking buddy!

TR? I thought they make an eggnog with the bourbon mixed in . . .

If I have to add the bourbon myself, I'm adding something else!!! LOL

Yep. See:

And, of course, I broke down and ordered some despite the ridiculous shipping charges . . .

Negative. Evan Williams Brand Original Southern Eggnog. "Made with Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Blended Whiskey, Rum, and Brandy." 30 proof.

They sell it here in the liquor stores. $6.95 a bottle, all day long here in God's Country.

It is good! Not sure it needs Tequila added, but to each his own.

Ouch!! You want I should pick you up a case, and run it out there?

It normally sells out well before Christmas around here, but we could probably export a few bottles to our Kali Legal Dept. Most of us buy a case well in advance to last us through New Year.

Let me know what you think about it when you get it.
