Mayo-nog Shakes Up the World of Holiday Drinks

Eggnog has long been a staple of the holiday season. Eggs, milk, and vanilla; that’s all it takes to make yourself one of the world’s more exotic drinks. Throw a little brandy in there and you’ve got a party. Now let’s suppose, one company wants to revolutionize this drink, but they’re best known for mayonnaise. Is that combination possible? Hellmann’s believes in the idea so much, they partnered with a mixologist to make their own version of the cocktail.

Say what you will, the name “Mayo-nog” certainly elicits a powerful reaction. Mixing mayonnaise with the classic trappings of eggnog, alongside some cinnamon and snicker doodles and world gets an even creamier eggnog. The drink is sold at Amy Fontaine’s, a premier bar in New York City. The exclusivity turns Mayo-nog into a hidden treasure, only available to those brave enough to seek it out. While the drink was only available for a limited time, the recipe has been released online for any adventurous individual to create on their own. So grab your mug and think outside the box for your next holiday-themed party.
