Fireball Eggnog Cocktail

Our rich and creamy Fireball Eggnog Cocktail recipe only requires 2 ingredients, Fireball, and eggnog, and comes together in just a few minutes.

Fireball cinnamon whiskey adds a warm spice, subtle sweetness, and alcohol kick to an innocent dairy-based drink โ€“ while it tastes creamy and makes you feel warm and cozy inside, donโ€™t underestimate the underlying Fireball-induced hot flash!

Christmas cocktails are always fun to sip while sitting by the fireplace or trimming the holiday tree because when you add a little liquor to your beverage, youโ€™ve balanced the cool winter weather with the heat from the Fireball.

Tips For Making Fireball Eggnog

  • This is an easy holiday cocktail that can be made using store-bought eggnog. Be sure to use a good quality brand that does not have other flavors already added to it. 
  • If you donโ€™t have Fireball, any brand of cinnamon whiskey will work just as well for this recipe.
  • You can use clear karo syrup in place of the water to rim your glass. The cinnamon sugar mixture will stick in a much thicker coating than it does with the water.

How to Store Fireball Eggnog

  • To Store: This cocktail is meant to be consumed as soon as you make it and shouldnโ€™t be saved for later!
