I was raised in a Jewish household, but because the Western world is very jingly-sprinkly-chocolatey-marshmallowy at this time of year, I harbored a humongous Jesus Envy.
The past few weeks have seen the return of two seasonal drinks -- hot chocolate and eggnog. Both taste sinfully delicious, but one of them trumps the other in terms of healthfulness.
The best drink for your holiday party is not a cocktail. It's a punch. Do you really want to spend all the time (and effort) it takes to mix a fancy cocktail for each of your guests?
