Often times a boozy eggnog recipe includes such alcoholic beverages as rum, brandy or bourbon. However, this delicious drink boasts a more fiery flare with its addition of [tequila](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tequila-el-mexicano).

Formally known as Mexican Eggnog, this hot holiday recipe is one part Sauza Conmemorativo Anejo, one part Maker's Mark Bourbon and three parts [delicious eggnog](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-eggnog1). Shaken and not stirred, these ingredients are mixed with ice until all the delicious flavors fully blend together. To make this a [vegan-friendly recipe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-lines-festive-oatnog), consumers simply replace the eggnog with a dairy-free substitute.

Served chilled, this recipe insists on whipped cream for garnish but to truly bring out its Mexican aesthetic, at-home mixologists can top this smoky drink with a few jalapenos or chili powder.
