Michele 1 #1 December 15, 2005 So I've got this Eggnog. I have lots of different sorts of alcohol sitting around. What sort should I put in it? I'm gonna watch "IT" on DVD, and think I might need some help sleeping after that which is why the question... So...any idea?

(No alcohol last year). Kahlua, rum, and bourbon. I've got the first two for sure, and I do believe I've got some bourbon, as well. I'm leaning towards the kahlua...I love that stuff. But I think I'll try some dark rum, as well. Thanks, guys. I **knew** I could count on you.

I'll try it with rum next, as that seems to be the accepted, general way to drink it...but I like it with Kahlua. 'Course, I like Kahlua a lot (I'll sip it straight...), so that might be the reason.

Mighty tasty. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

I don't think it will matter what you put in your eggnog, you will probably still have trouble sleeping. Very scarey movie .

Favorite holiday drinks: hot mulled wine or hot mulled cider with rum. also, barley wine (we got a local source now) scotch ale...... ....mmmm well a good oatmeal stout is always welcome......

I just finished it, and found it...well...not scary. The book was far darker, scarier and more (something) than the movie. I don't think I'll have any trouble sleeping, alcohol or not. Pity. I was hoping for something more. 'Course, I don't scare easy, either, so maybe that's it. But hey, the eggnog was good (sweet or not, I like that.). Although, I must admit, some mulled cider sounds good, too. Maybe I'll make that up tomorrow night, and watch "Silence of the Lambs." Any recipe for mulled cider? Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites SpeedRacer 1 #16 December 15, 2005 heat up some cidre in the microwave with cinnamon, allspice nutmeg orange peel, that kinda stuff. I got these teabags with all that stuff in it for hot mulled cider so I just use those. Then add rum. do not add rum before nuking, the alcohol will evaporate. edited to add: it'a about 20 degrees F here tonight & trust me, there's no substitute for hot mulled cider w/ rum on a night like this.
