To close out 2025 in proper holiday fashion, Dan wraps the year with a festive, slightly unhinged, and deeply drinkable finale. The episode opens with a Yuletide tale from Dan’s childhood that is equal parts nostalgia, family lore, and seasonal chaos, before welcoming one of the true legends of the bar world: Dale DeGroff.
The world-renowned barman joins Dan for an eggnog-themed extravaganza that proves this classic deserves far more respect than it usually gets. Dale walks through not one, not two, but three of his favorite eggnog recipes, breaking down technique, history, and why the drink still matters. Two of the nogs lean into rich, whiskey-forward holiday comfort thanks to Michter’s, while the third offers a clever curveball: an egg-free “faux-nog” built around The Reid Vodka for anyone who loves the flavor but not the texture or the raw eggs.
It’s a warm, boozy, informative send-off to the year, full of craft, conversation, and just enough holiday spirit to get you through the season. Consider it a masterclass in eggnog, with one hell of a tour guide, and a fitting toast to the end of 2025.
