Homemade eggnog is a holiday favorite that’s ultra creamy, perfectly spiced, and spiked for a good time. You’ll be surprised how easy this comes together with just a blender – no whisking involved! With holidays revolving around nostalgic things, a classic eggnog is a must. It’s delectably creamy, has a hint of spice, is slightly boozy, and screams winter wonderland in one chilled cup.
