Best Answer

As far as we can tell, eggnog originated from the east of England.

A similar drink in medieval England was called posset. This drink was made similarly to eggnog by using curdled milk and ale or wine. Eggnog uses spirits such as brandy and Bourbon, rather than wine or ale like posset does. So eggnog may have been a variation of posset, which gradually became more popular and began to spread across Europe and then to the North American continent.

The "nog" part of the name is believed to come from the old English word "noggin", which is a small wooden mug for serving alcohol.


So in conclusion, eggnog likely originated from England and it was probably a variation of a similar drink called posset, which eggnog became more popular than.
