WHISKYEGG NOGG
And here's another nice individual egg nogg. Whip one
egg into a froth with a tablespoon of sugar,either granulated
or powdered,although the powdered is most easUy whipped.
Pour out,into a tumbler,stirring all the while,two ounces of
whisky and milk to fill the glass. Now pour the entire
mixture into a shaker with cracked ice and shake till thor
oughly chilled, straining into clean tumbler and sifting either
nutmeg or cinnamon on top of drink. Sip from brim or use
straws.
ARRACK BRANDY NOGG
Now for another nice nogg. To one weU beaten egg add
two ounces of Brandy, a dash of Arrack and tablespoon of
"gum." Stir well and strain into a tumbler one third fuU of
finely shaved ice. Add and stir while adding, milk to fill
glass almost to rim. Dust with nutmeg and sip or drink.
This drink also can be made with hot milk instead of
being served cold. Either way is most enjoyable.
COGNACEGG NOGG
Now for another fine mixture. Whip an egg into a froth
and mix it in a tumbler with two ounces of Cognac Brandy
and a tablespoon of "gum." When thoroughly mixed, add
finely shaved ice and fill glass while stirring with sweet milk.
Topwith a pinchof cinnamon or grated nutmeg,as you prefer.
SCOTCH EGG NOGG
For a gentler feminine nogg, try this one: Beat a yolk of
one egg, stir in a tablespoonful and a half of Scotch whisky,
using a small tumbler, add three tablespoons of fine ice and
one tablespoon of "gum"and fill glass with milk, stirring to
mix egg well into mixture. A dash of Angostura Bitters lends
snap. Use or omit any nutmeg or cinnamon. It's nice either
way. And, incidentally, by using a heat resisting mug or
glass, you might try this one with hot or warm milk,too.
And now,let's go to some of the noggs which have come
down the corridors of time with names added to them.
