Notes

  1. I like using fresh cinnamon sticks! It definitely adds flavor, but also makes the drink look so much more presentable. It isn't necessary, but it definitely adds to the wow factor.
  2. You don't have to use whiskey for this recipe! Just like eggnog, you can substitute rum, brandy, bourbon, cognac etc depending on your preference.
  3. Try out different spices, herbs and citrus to find your favorite flavor combination.
