Picture this: a cozy evening, a crackling fireplace, and the warmth of holiday spirit in the air. As a coffee enthusiast and an advocate for finding joy in the little things, I present to you my latest creation—a Cannabis Infused Eggnog Espresso Mocktini infused with Jane & Juice's 'Synchronicity' Ampoule.
This delightful concoction is my go-to for blending the robust notes of espresso with the comforting embrace of classic eggnog. The addition of Jane & Juice's 'Synchronicity' Ampoule brings a subtle twist, creating a beautifully balanced elixir that encapsulates the season's essence.
What is Eggnog?
Eggnog, a beloved holiday classic, is more than just a creamy concoction; it's a sip of tradition and comfort. At its core, eggnog is a luscious beverage crafted from a blend of milk, cream, sugar, and beaten eggs. Its origins trace back to medieval Britain, where a hot, ale-based concoction called "posset" was spiked with eggs and eventually evolved into the creamy libation we know today.
Make Your Own Eggnog At Home
Making eggnog at home involves:
Whisking together egg yolks and sugar until they achieve a pale, velvety consistency.
To this mixture, warm milk is added slowly, creating a base enriched with heavy cream.
The final touch is a sprinkle of nutmeg, adding a warm and festive aroma.
This process not only yields a decadent drink but also carries a sense of nostalgia, evoking memories of cozy gatherings and cherished moments around the hearth. So, as you embark on the journey of making your eggnog, remember that each frothy sip is a sip into history, tradition, and the heartwarming embrace of the holiday season.
