About Eggnog
Eggnog is a rich, creamy beverage traditionally enjoyed during the holiday season. Originating in Europe and popularized in North America, it is made with milk, cream, sugar, and eggs, often flavored with vanilla, nutmeg, or cinnamon. Alcoholic variations may include rum, bourbon, or brandy. Eggnog is high in calcium and protein due to its dairy and egg content, which can provide nutrients for bone health and muscle development. However, it is also calorie-dense and contains significant amounts of sugar and saturated fat, which may contribute to weight gain and raised cholesterol levels if consumed excessively. Homemade recipes allow for healthier modifications, such as reduced sugar or lower-fat milk alternatives. While eggnog is a festive treat with traditional roots, moderation is key to enjoying its indulgent flavors without compromising nutritional balance.
