Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, simply replace the spiced rum and brandy with more eggnog or a splash of vanilla-flavored sparkling water.
If you prefer a thicker cocktail, blend the ingredients with ice rather than shaking them.
Feel free to experiment with different types of spirits or flavored liqueurs to create your own signature eggnog cocktail!
