Supermarket Follies

Click on photo for close-up. This here concoction in the cartoonish bottle is none other than Eierlikör, or egg liquor. Egg yolks, sugar or honey, and grain alcohol, usually mixed with cream or milk. While I know that this is hepped-up egg nog, I really can't get behind it-- especially not in that bottle. Eierlikör is available year round here, but sales obviously climb around the holidays. Me, I'll stick to my old holiday standard: Borden egg nog with a snort of Southern Comfort.
