Words by Dwight Hobart:
This is a Hemphill County eggnog. Hemphill County is where all the men are men and the women are, too. It’s made fresh: a bottle of bourbon, a bottle of rum, a little peach brandy, eggs, egg whites and whipped cream. No frills, an eggnog for the ages. That’s how we do it – serious food.
