Cocktail enthusiasts can quickly name the swankiest martini in Southern California, while margarita mavens know where to go for the lime-loveliest, saltiest-of-rim sips.
And oenophiles have their go-to wineries, the nearby vineyards and tasting rooms that produce the classiest cabs, pinots, and chardonnay.
Nog-ists, though, have a smaller window in which to connect with the creamy concoction they love. It's a window that opens around Thanksgiving, or just after, and comes to a distinct close in the last week of December.

And while eggnog can arrive unspirited, with no alcohol — you likely have your dreamiest local dairy in mind here, if you love this libation — there are versions created for the 21-and-up set.
Including the "Boozy Eggnog" that's become synonymous with the HomeState restaurants during the holiday season.
Created with a quality selection of spirits, including brandy, rye whiskey, rum, and sherry, the nicely spiced libation comes in small bottles made for gifting. Or, yes, enjoying at home.
