Kellogg's Eggo brand is coming out with their own version of eggnog and they're putting their own twist to the holiday drink.
"It's really heavy on deep flavors of churned cream, and cinnamon and nutmeg, which we feel pair really well with that perfectly toasted Eggo waffle," Sugarlands Master Distiller Greg Eidam said.
It's called "Eggo Nog" and it's actually a cream liqueur. Kellogg's teamed up with Gatlinburg, Tennesse's Sugarlands Distilling Co. to bring their first eggo-related product for people 21 and older. Sugarlands Master Distilling Co. also said that they hope "Eggo Nog" will become the new holiday tradition.
"We had an idea based on what we'd heard from parents, about this 'Me Time' that they have at night where they're eating Eggo waffles," Joe Beauprez, Marketing Director with Eggo, told Food & Wine. "Instead of it being the kids in the morning around the table, it was them at night having a toasted waffle. They'd put a scoop of ice cream on it or drizzle it with chocolate sauce, and we thought that was interesting. We started to think about how we could elevate that occasion in a way that's for the parents."
The "Eggo Nog" will be available through the holiday season and you can go to Sugarland.com to see where's the closest place to grab a bottle is near you! Head to Food & Wine for more.
