Some of that Holiday Spirit!
When i got up this morning, one of those morning shows (good morning america, or today or something) announced that Martha Stewart was going to be on soon, to show us how to make Egg Nog. I'm not much of a Martha fan, but i've wondered what exactly goes into Egg Nog. So i dropped the remote, and waited patiently.
Then there she was. Ugh. Well, lets see how it's done anyway.
Egg yolks - ok, i guess i expected that.
1.5 cups sugar - understandable
1 quart (that's 4 cups) whole milk - that's why i buy it in the "dairy" section.
1.5 quarts heavy cream - no wonder it tastes good
3 cups of Bourbon - really? That's almost an entire bottle.
2 cups of Cognac - uh huh, more than half a bottle...
0.5 cup of Rum - i see.
She swears it's better than the stuff i get at the store and i don't doubt it!
Jesus Martha, that concoction is 30% alcohol!
That's what i call holiday spirit. I may have to try it.
So to answer my question: What goes into Egg Nog? Lots of booze!

Dang, that is a lot of booze. I'm going to not make that at home ever because if I do, I will never be able to drink it knowing how fatty it is.
