Egg Punch?

In the theme of Christmas markets, have you been to Gendarmenmarkt’s Weihnachtsmarkt yet? I think it’s so beautiful. I’m sure I’ve already talked about this market in my previous post, and this post will make it a total of 3 Christmas market posts that I’ve written. I’m a little obsessed with Christmas markets eh!

Well at Gendarmenmarkt I was told that there was a eggnog like drink that I should try. I’ve never had eggnog so I was keen. So we rocked up to a Gluhwein stall and asked for a “Eierpunsch”. Gosh it looked so pretty, see the picture below, the whipped creme on top looked so inviting. Well to my ignorant taste buds it didn’t taste as good as it looked. I was very disappointed. My partner said the version in Italy is much sweeter, so I’ll make a comparison when I get the chance to try it there. I wonder what eggnog is suppose to taste like…hmmm?

Have you tried Eierpunsch yet?
