Now, I know not everyone is a fan of eggnog. There seems to be two camps in the eggnog kingdom. The "I love this stuff and I can't wait until Fall rolls around so I can buy it by the gallon" side and the "Gross." side. My husband is the former, and I am the latter. But I like to try new things, and I've had sips of his eggnog milkshake a time or two before, so I thought this punch recipe sounded pretty tasty. And quite festive! We had some friends over for a little Christmas party of sorts, and I made a batch for the evening. It was super easy- comes together in less than 5 minutes and it didn't taste overwhelmingly "eggnog-y". Ha ha. Spell check is having a fit right now. Of course, my red plastic cup with sharpie name on the side didn't look as pretty as these, and I skipped the candy cane and nutmeg sprinkles, but overall, it was a success :)
