Holiday Berry Nog Recipe (Eggnog Variation)

If you’ve hosted a holiday party, you know that planning the food and drinks can be tricky. The traditional foods are easy, and comfortable. But if you want something on the side this year that will delight and please, then you have to up your anti in the drink department. And, I know that we all struggle with those ‘holiday pounds’ this time of year, so why not make your sweet drinks also healthy? It is possible, and very yummy as well!

Here’s a recipe I wanted to share with you, provided by Driscoll’s Berries!

Holiday Berry Nog

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 1 package (6 ounces) Driscoll’s Raspberries, Blackberries or Blueberries

• 1 cup purchased eggnog
• 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon, plus extra for garnish
