Eggnog?!

Is the UHT Jamaican eggnog similar to the eggnog we have in the US?  I wouldn't mind having some around for Christmas..

Advocaat is worth a try, but I think if the OP wants something to add tequila to, that probably isn't it.    Also, I (personally) don't think it bears much resemblance at all to US eggnog.  Probably because ours seems to have gotten thicker and sweeter than the original version.

Eggnog is sooo easy to make..

I use Paula Deen's recipe and it tasted just what I remembered as a kid Eggnog should taste like....

I used Alton Brown's recipe last year (having never made it before) and while I wouldn't want to whip it by hand, an electric beater makes it so easy.

That said, I just instructed my BF to add a bottle of Advocaat to the Tesco's order 

Mulled wine seems to be the preferred warm Christmas drink here.

If you don't like the Advocaat as eggnog - you can always make Snowballs out of it!  We always have that as one of our festive drinks before our Christmas dinner at my in-laws.  My BIL makes them - only he uses Smirnoff Ice in place of some (or all?) of the lemonade/lime cordial bit.

It's a cold drink with lots of ice though!  Mulled wine gives me a headache & makes me want to boak.

I like my nog ice cold!

Mulled wine and eggnog are both lovely, and there's plenty of time for both at Christmas!

Is that British lemonade or American lemonade?

Does anyone do hot buttered rum here? I was in a bar in Edinburgh last winter and overheard an American unsuccessfully try to order some. My experiences ordering anything more complicated than a G&T in Scotland have been mixed at best, though.

British!
