Farm to bottle: how eggnog is made

Two months out of the year, Dairy Maid Dairy in Frederick, MD produces eggnog using milk from local dairy farms. Here's how it happens. Produced for Maryland Farm & Harvest on Maryland Public TV.

This is the video you only search up when you’re drinking egg nog and wondering how it’s so delicious

Thanks! I've always wondered how it was made, I'm drinking eggnog at the moment!

[positivelyblessed]

I could drink eggnog year round. I love it. Wish I could buy it all year.

When you drinking something so delicious you just gotta Binge watch how it’s made 😂 😂 😂

I actually love eggnog and drink it everytime Christmas comes around, I don't get people who don't like it

Thank you very much farmers. My wife said to say this

I tried to get the 1st quart of eggnog from Giant Food here for 4 years now. I'm always too early or too late. This year the manager gave me a quart. She said it was from the 1st delivery of eggnog for this season. By myself I probably drink 3 quarts between Thanksgiving and New Year. So now the next eggnog is only 9 months away.
I enjoyed this video. Good balance between visual and information. Nice voice too.
HAPPY EGGNOG TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD DRINK !

I first tried eggnog back in 2018 from my roommate. After that I was drinking about 1 gallon a week till Christmas. Now it's about 1 quart. I just can't get enough!

Just so you know, whole milk is not 3%. 3% milk is low-fat milk. Whole milk is what I pull out of the bulk tank, which is 7% milk-fat.

So what you're telling me is they *DON'T* have heifers that naturally produce eggnog on their own?

Watching a day after Christmas with a glass of nog in hand.

I never understood why eggnog is not produced all year.

They started selling eggnog during Easter this year and I’m drinking it rn so I wanted to see how it’s made lol

[alvaalgood]

We have a local dairy that begins distribution of eggnog early October unetil after Easter.

"6% fat, twice the amount in whole milk"
👀👀👀👀 I don't like whole milk, but i do love eggnog and I'm going to pretend I didn't hear those figures lol

I'm always looking for egg nog in the stores day after and the stores quickly get rid of it. :(

Egg nog: my ONLY addiction…
I personally drink GALLONS of egg nog between October 31 and January 1 — straight out of the bottle or carton — no alcohol. It’s too easy for me to open up a quart and finish it all within 4 to 6 hours. I’ve often opened up a half-gallon bottle or carton and drank the last drop before the same time next day. It’s a good thing for me that it’s only on the market for 2 months. If it were available year round, I’d have surely died of clogged arteries decades ago!
How I would LOVE to try me some of that DAIRY MAID Egg Nog! But I’m in Arkansas and none of our grocery stores carry it.
I’ve got a large colorful collection of empty egg nog cartons and bottles from many different dairies (all of which I drank myself) that I display at Christmas time. I would love to have a “Dairy Maid Egg Nog” bottle to add to my collection.

Eggnog must be the 6th state of matter. That would explain why it matters so much to all of us.
