Re: Moose milk
I'd never heard of it - the google searches seem to imply its some sort of military inspired drink. Souvy might know more.

Re: Moose milk
Not sure what traditionally goes with it, but you could always try starting your own tradition and take some mince pies - they go really well together.

Re: Moose milk
ex-CF friends of ours introduced us to it last Christmas. Vicious stuff - or at least the way we knocked it back. It's not dissimilar to eggnog. I think the ingredients are something like: rum (plenty of it), kahlua, vodka (optional), milk, raw egg (also optional), vanilla icecream, nutmeg.

Re: Moose milk
Yes. It's an airforce tradition. Recipes vary. I think the one we got served to us at The High Commission was essentially a lethal ice cream shake. People get bladdered on it because the taste disguises the potency (like Pimms and Long Island Iced Tea).

Re: Moose milk
Speaking of Moose Milk and other super sweet drinks.
This is just way too over the top.
