Flavored vodka can offer the tantalizing taste of a lip-smacking mixed drink without all the extra ingredients and calories. While we’ve heard of some pretty decadent flavors (think whipped cream, cookie dough, cake, etc.), we have now learned that this year Three Olives is giving the treatment to a rich, holiday classic: eggnog. So now, you can have that tree-trimming, carol-crooning flavor with ice and a spritz of soda water or experiment by adding to your favorite vodka-based martinis. However, if your jones for the festive fave won’t be satisfied without an added hit of nog’s signature creaminess, they’ve concocted a cocktail that delivers. To make the appropriately titled “Sleigh Ride,”combine two parts eggnog vodka, 1½ parts half & half, and
¼ part honey syrup (equal parts honey and water) in a rocks glass over ice. Stir gently and garnish with grated nutmeg. For extra visual flair and seasonal flavor, you can also add a cinnamon stick as pictured. The result may not be quite as thick as nog, but, hey, that just leaves room for more. threeolives.com
