It’s December and I’m really looking forward to an annual tradition of the “Tom and Jerry” cocktail! It’s a delicious warm, creamy drink sprinkled with nutmeg. The adult version is usually served with rum, but it can easily be made for children (mine adore this treat) without any alcohol. To concoct, a batter is made and kept in the refrigerator and simply mixed with hot water. The batter can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week. When I was growing up in Peoria, IL, this batter was a staple sold in many of the local grocery stores during the holidays. I remember my mom making and serving them. My kids and I love warm drinks and this one is sure to delight you! Cheers!
