I can't say that I've had Rooibos.

There's no way there's 500 calories in a standard 8 fl oz serving of eggnog. But it does vary greatly as it depends on what it's made with. Alcoholic or not, I believe generally it's between 200 and 400. Also, one can make a healthy version for around 155 calories/serving.

I was curious as to what a Paula Deen eggnog recipe looked like. It's gotta be loaded.

Red bull and NOS....there some Japanese import energy drinks but I forget there names.

I bought some the other day, and it's 180 calories per 1/2 cup. I'm bored and did the math and the Paula Deen one winds up being 4,351 calories for the whole thing. I think it makes around 11 cups, so it ends up being only slightly worse than my non-alcoholic storebought crap.

I love egg nog. My mother hates it, however, so I never actually tasted it until I was a teenager. It's probably for the better, though. I can literally feel my ass expanding when I drink it. I've had the soy milk version before and it's nowhere near as good.
