    frequently asked questions

    Can I use a different type of eggnog?

    Absolutely! If you prefer traditional eggnog or dairy-free options like almond or oat milk eggnog, feel free to substitute. Keep in mind that it may change the flavor slightly, but it will still be delicious.

    Is there a way to make this drink non-alcoholic?

    Yes, you can easily make a non-alcoholic version of this martini by skipping the vodka and adding a bit more espresso or pumpkin spice eggnog to balance the flavor. The result will be a festive, alcohol-free treat!
