Also called: egg nog, eggnog, anda nog, anda nogg, egg-nog, anda nogg, eggnog drink, eggnog tall glass

Egg nog is that rich, creamy winter drink that feels a bit like dessert in a glass. Usually you’ll see it around Christmas parties or cozy home gatherings, with milk, egg, sugar, vanilla, and a little nutmeg giving it that warm, festive taste.

gastroenterology Gut Health Insight

Since egg nog is mostly milk and egg, it gives a decent protein hit and some calcium, so it’s more filling than a regular sweet drink. The nutmeg adds a lovely aroma and can feel soothing, but the sugar and the creamy fat can make it heavy if you sip it too fast. If your stomach feels sensitive, have it chilled or slightly warm and pair it with a light snack, not a full greasy meal. Lactose-sensitive folks may feel bloated, so a smaller glass works better.
