That's custard! You're not supposed to drink that! It goes on pudding! Eggnog is about 20% proof and it's supposed to be evens between dying of alcohol poisoning or indigestion if you drink too much!

Most people only buy powdered cinnamon & a lot of stores don't carry sticks. Also, very few people own microplaners/zesters/fine graters.
I did try doing the recipe with ground cinnamon (roasted to boot), but it just ended up tasting like horchata. Well, more like a thicker version of the leftover milk after you eat Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The recipe I linked to has very clear flavors...nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, vanilla. It's not overwhelming or complex; just very simple & in your face. I would say it's a 95% recipe...I don't know what the other 5% it needs is. Maybe allspice, I dunno. I haven't really delved into holiday spices all that much. It's a really, really good recipe (I've made it a half a dozen times in the past week for various get-togethers), but it just needs something extra, I'm not sure what.
Officially it's xmas.
That means everything is canceled?Cancelled here in Socal due to nice weather.
