So the holiday season is upon us, and with it lots of Hallmark movies and Nancy Meyers ROMCOMS. Some boozy milk punch is the perfect accompaniment to an afternoon curled up on the couch watching your favorite holiday movie. It's almost as wholesome as Jimmy Stewart. Despite this, it truly is delicious and not as rich as the nog of the egg. (Plus let's face it, egg nog is usually pretty gross.) And it's easy to make. But it does need to sit overnight, so plan accordingly. Although I also show it in a gorgeous MCM punch bowl, we make it in a glass pitcher to store in the refrigerator over night. Did you miss the post on the ROMCOM kitchen?

1 cup brandy
3/4 cup dark rum
