like coffee? like eggnog? here ya go.
yesterday i bought some eggnog because it is december and it’s the only time of year that i’ll drink the stuff. last night i had a nice cup o’ eggnog with a bit o’ captain morgan in it, garnished with whipped cream and nutmeg.
this morning i woke up thinking gee, wouldn’t eggnog be great in my coffee too?
damn right.
here’s how i made it: (all measurements are approx)
1 tbs instant coffee
1/2 c hot (boiling) water (it filled my mug not quite half way)
2/3 c eggnog (once added, it filled my mug nearly to the top)
1 swig captain morgan spiced rum (optional)
nutmeg to taste
Directions:
put instant coffee into coffee mug. boil water. add water to instant coffee; stir. add eggnog and stir. this may make your eggnog coffee a little colder than you like. i put mine in the microwave for a few seconds to bring it up to a more desirable morning beverage temperature. add a swig o’ the captain if you so desire then garnish with a bit o’ nutmeg. whipped cream on the top wouldn’t be out of order, either.
