Run Run Rudolph | Eggnog Blender Base

Carey Jones and John McCarthy

Prep Time

5-10 minutes

"This creamy Eggnog has the classic flavors of an Irish coffee. We recommend Tullamore D.E.W. as the whiskey and the excellent cold brew liqueur Mr. Black.


Do not forget the nutmeg! Some garnishes are optional. Nutmeg on Eggnog is absolutely not – the nutmeg flavor specifically helps us recognize a drink as Eggnog rather than any old creamy drink."
