Mmmm...Christmas Season. Festive Holiday Drinks.

Does anyone have a good recipe for Hot Buttered Icewater? I didn't think so.

This sobriety thing gets tedious at times.

1. Eggnog is fine with or without. Just don't forget the nutmeg.

2. Fucking A

And there's like none in store bought egg nog anymore. Local restaurant here makes the best Egg nog. Hot water, brandy or whiskey, not sure which, don't think it was the standard rum though, and this thick eggy concoction they mix together. Heaven.

3. And technically nutmeg is a hallucinogen when taken in large quantities

So that HAS to add to the warm holiday cheer no? B-)

4. I think you need to ingest a couple of pounds of it...

To get the buzz going. Somehow, I just don't see myself sitting down to a large bowl of nutmeg with a spoon and The Dead playing in the background.

5. At least an ounce was my research

And that's actually a fuck of a lot of nutmeg. Hey, drugs were really scarce for a while back in the day. We did a lot of research into "alternates" lol. I don't think it's physically possible to eat enough without getting ill.

7. I seem to remember seeing...

A video of someone drinking a large, very brown Nutmeg shake, for the usual reasons, on the Internet. He downs this thing and immediately sets a new world's record in Projectile Vomiting. I mean he got some real mileage out of that boot.

Did nothing to pique my interest in Nutmeg as anything but a garnish or an addition to some French meat recipes.

9. Eggnog, hot chocolate, are both good

You can also get Candy Cane Lane herbal tea that is fine.

Sorry the non-booze thing is tedious. With me this year, it is non-sugar and low carb (so of course no booze)--but you can find some nice drinks. Personally, I've taken Black Cherry Berry herbal tea, made it up triple strength, and cut it with soda water. Not too bad, and no carbs.

I did fudge this afternoon-had almond milk with stevia and nutmeg.

Coconut milk is also a great treat, especially the "cream".
