 | | ENTERTAIN WITH EGGNOG: SPICE UP THE HOLIDAY SEASON SOUTHERN STYLE |  | | HP Hood LLC | | 09/10/2007 | | | Limited-edition flavors add excitement to holiday entertaining and baking
Each year, when the holiday season rolls around, so too do a multitude of varied holiday traditions. Different families, in different parts of the country, have different rituals. One holiday tradition that has remained constant throughout the years, however, is the serving of eggnog.
For centuries, hospitable hosts all over the world have been sharing this rich and creamy beverage with their lucky guests to spice up the merry atmosphere. What started in England as a drink enjoyed primarily by the upper class is now available to all-and in a variety of flavors.
HP Hood, a New England-based dairy company that first introduced eggnog in 1953, has introduced a new line of four premium, limited-edition EggNog flavors -- Cinnamon, Pumpkin, Gingerbread and Sugar Cookie -- just in time to jazz up the holiday season.
"For years, customers have been telling us that, not only do they like to drink eggnog, they like to cook with it too. We've heard over and over again that it's an excellent substitute for milk or cream when you're looking for a richer, creamier taste," said Lynne Bohan, Vice President, Public Relations and Government Affairs. "Our flavored EggNogs aren't just good for drinking but also for making that extra-special holiday dish."
The flavors were developed using a proprietary recipe that blends extra- creamy milk with sugared egg yolks, cane sugar and a combination of nutmeg and rum flavoring. Because they can be frozen for up to six months, Hood's EggNog products can be enjoyed right through to early summer.
To help inspire consumers this holiday season -- and beyond -- Hood has developed a series of tried-and-true recipes featuring its new EggNog flavors.
-- Looking for that perfect Christmas-morning meal to serve your family? Try the gingerbread pancakes. -- Instead of making sugar cookies, experiment with sugar cookie creme brulee. -- Forget about fruitcake; opt for gingerbread spice cake instead. -- Bored with bread pudding? Test out the chocolate gingerbread pudding. -- Bring eggnog back to its roots with the EggNog English Trifle.
