A traditional Christmas morning drink. This cocktail is believed to have originated in the 17th century, apparently coming from an English habit of adding a beaten egg to a "noggin" - a small mug of strong beer. To thicken the mixture more egg yolk can be added, or alternatively it can be thinned by adding more milk. The consistency of this cocktail is down to a matter of personal taste.
