We have grown up hearing tales of eggnog, everyone drinks it in Christmas Films. Can you think of a Christmas movie that doesn’t mention it? Thus I decided I had to try and create my own Baileys Eggnog recipe and came up with this Gin And Baileys Eggnog.
I had never tried it, but it just sounds like something I would love. I mean come on, whats not to love about Christmas in a glass?  Especially for a cocktail lover such as I? However when I decided to give it a go and make home made eggnog this year but found so many variations of the recipe, but knew they had to contain Baileys and Gin.
There were two common ingredients from all the recipes I read, and those were egg white and milk. So I decided, you know what, I am going to make my own version. As long as it contains egg white and milk I can’t go far wrong. And what’s better when creating a seasonal cocktail, than one that’s tailored to include your favourite drinks? A kind of loose version of the traditional drink.
Baileys Is A Christmas Drink Right?
So when choosing the worthy ingredients for my Christmas Cocktail I decided to go with my two favourite tipples and make a Gin and Baileys Cocktail
These are two drinks I know many will have in their drinks cabinet all ready to go. The fact I had the ingredients ready to go, made this the quickest and easiest cocktail I have ever made. I had it created, lit and photographed within 20 minutes. (Something that usually takes me hours) Leaving me plenty of time to sit back, put up my feet and enjoy a delicious Gin and Baileys cocktail the eggnog way.
Here is how you make a Gin and Baileys Christmas Cocktail, perfect for sipping as you watch Christmas movies, feeling festive or impressing friends with your impeccable hostess skills as you whip up a cocktail in minutes.
