Swap out your usual holiday drink for Hog Nog this year! ???????? We’re so excited to collaborate with our friends at Hog Island Oysters to bring you this fun and festive spin on a holiday classic using @strausmilk Organic Eggnog! Crafted by Hog Island Oyster Co. Beverage Director, Saul Ranella. The Hog Nog is creamy, tame, yet boozy without the bite of a typical spirit driven cocktail (thanks to all that frothy egg wash)!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rye Whiskey
- 1 cup Sweet Vermouth
- 1 cup Averna Amaro
- 1 cup Pimento Dram
- 1 cup Simple Syrup
- 1/2 cup Lemon Juice
- 2 cups Straus Organic Eggnog
Instructions
Step 1
In a 64-ounce mason jar, combine the Rye Whiskey, Sweet Vermouth, Averna Amaro, Pimento Dram, Simple Syrup, and Lemon Juice.
Step 2
In another 64-ounce mason jar, add the 2 cups of warmed Straus Old-Fashioned Organic Eggnog.
Step 3
Pour the alcoholic mixture from the first jar into the second jar containing the eggnog. As you do this, you’ll notice the ingredients visibly curdle.
Step 4
To achieve a clarified consistency, pass the final mixture through a large strainer lined with a coffee filter or cheesecloth. Continue straining multiple times until the mixture begins to pour transparent.
Step 5
Serve the drink over ice and garnish with freshly grated nutmeg and enjoy!
