Although delicious and festive, eggnog is just an alcoholic protein shake . . . not that I think there is anything wrong with that. In fact I find the combination of creamy cashews, cinnamon, nutmeg and rum to be egg-cellent. Serve it chilled or warmed, spiked or virgin, this eggnog will get you egg-cited for the holidays!
