The holidays are upon us and I’m so excited to share with you this festive cocktail: Spiced Nog Coffee!

Today’s recipe is sponsored by Silk. All opinions shared are my own.

Silk’s holiday “egg”nogs are dairy and lactose-free with each serving 80 calories or less! I’m not lactose-intolerant (hence, the whipped cream on top of this cocktail), but I use Silk products because they taste good! If you’re lactose-intolerant, just skip the whipped cream.

The holidays are a pretty big deal with my family. On Christmas Eve night, Mama always bakes a HUGE rib roast and there is enough food to feed an army. Anyone and everyone is invited and we always have a blast. I’ve always been in charge of COCKTAILS, of course! Come to think of it, I started making cocktails at our oyster roasts for everyone way back in the day. Little did I know back then that I’d have my very own blog to share my recipes one day! Wait… blogs weren’t around back then (gosh that makes me feel old) so I wouldn’t have thought of it anyway. 🙂

To make things even more interesting, I drizzled some chocolate syrup on top. Lord have mercy, it was all I could do to photograph this without downing it. For real. Even my dog, Baby, was trying to sniff at it while I was photographing. 🙂

Your simple ingredients are: Silk’s Original Soy Nog, spiced rum and coffee (with the optional whipped cream and chocolate syrup). You can even used iced or cold coffee if you want. Silk also carries a Pumpkin Spice Almond Nog and an Original Almond Nog that would be awesome, too!
