Lio by Mark Tatulli for December 06, 2013

Oh, you naughty Cybil!

Bad Kitty!

BTW, it should be rum. That cat has no couth.

A small glip or two may enhance the glup glup, but Cybil has more glip than glup in her recipe! No wonder Lio is upset. He’s also powerless to stop Cybil and (I hope) knows it….

Cybil thoght it had too much egg and not enough nog.

Rum is much better.

I prefer Southern Comfort.

Southern Comfort works for me too

Jeez – why be so mono-spiritualistic? Our old family recipe calls for brandy, rum AND bourbon (we do use Southern Comfort in place of bourbon some years to add a little extra sweetness).

But gin? Never tried it but it seems to me those aromatics may not line up with the flavor of the nog.

Gin!?!? Rum or Brandy would be much better . . . and more traditional.

Regardless of what spirit is used, the nog is now off limits to Lio (it should also be off limits to Cybil as well, but I’m not going to tell her that).

Is Cybil related to Bill the Cat over in Bloom County ?

Cybill would rather Tanqueray tonight!

Wouldn’t tequila in eggnog be weird?

Eggnog was originally made with rum, you know…

Hic !

Good kitty.

Cybil!
