Egg nog is a rich, creamy holiday beverage traditionally enjoyed in North America and parts of Europe. Its origins trace back to medieval Britain, where early versions called "posset" combined milk, eggs, and alcohol. Today, classic egg nog is made with milk, cream, sugar, raw or pasteurized eggs, and often flavored with nutmeg or cinnamon. Many recipes include bourbon, rum, or brandy for an added kick. While egg nog is beloved for its indulgent taste and festive associations, it’s high in calories, fat, and sugar, making moderation key. Eggs in the mix provide protein and essential nutrients like choline, while nutmeg adds antioxidants. However, the saturated fat and added sugars can be a concern for heart health and weight management. Non-alcoholic and light versions are available for a healthier twist, allowing this seasonal treat to fit more easily within balanced diets.
