3 Nogs to Try This Holiday (Anders Erickson)

The holiday season is in full swing. With Christmas just a day away and the new year upon us, you gotta have your selection of some great Yule Tide joy (in cocktail form). A good eggnog or milk punch is absolutely clutch for this time of year. Whether you want to pre-game before a night on the town or kick back with some of your closest friends and family, it's great to have some options. What better than to have three different spiked eggnog concoctions?

Check it out here:

I Tried Holiday Cocktail Gift Sets (Anders Erickson)

 Oh, man. I know this guy was not feeling a lot of these drinks. Sometimes the pre-made stuff or the recommended set of drinks really don't taste so good. But it's super funny how he's a bit buzzed while giving brutal honesty. LOL. Check it out.
