We've already found out that it's National Fruitcake Month, but did you know that it's also National Egg Nog Month? Yeah, it was probably inevitable, but when I see a lot of months that have non-seasonal foods in them, it's comforting and reassuring to see that both National Fruitcake Month and National Egg Nog Month come during Christmastime.
The Coffee and Tea section over at About.com has a lot of Egg Nog recipes, including Chocolate Egg Nog and Baltimore Egg Nog (made with peach brandy). Martha Stewart has her recipe for eggnog (of course), and here's Alton Brown's recipe. You can also try the Hot Egg Nog recipe we talked about recently.
Now, the only question is: is it spelled as one word or two?

I can honestly say I've never had hot egg nog. I've had egg nog-flavored hot drinks at places like Borders, and I wonder if this is similar at all (probably not).
