December 24: National Egg Nog Day

Sip on a seasonal cocktail on Christmas Eve! Add a twist to the traditional White Russian by mixing in egg nog instead of cream or milk in a martini glass. Rim it with cinnamon-sugar for a festive flavor and top this delicious drink with a dollop of whipped cream for a snowy center. Egg Nog White Russian is perfect on National Egg Nog Day and the night before Christmas.
