A friendly eggnog competition, with live music by The Jellies and book signings with Liz Williams and Kat Robinson
This year’s Nog-off will be the ultimate competition to find out who makes the best eggnog in town. We're bringing back some of our winningest, most creative, and all-time favorite champions for our 20th Ever Nog-off! It will be a battle of the best at everyone's favorite holiday event, where the eggnog is stiff but the competition is stiffer!
Returning to duke it out with their award-winning eggnogs are: David Burnette, Calm and Confidence, the Capital Hotel, Dumas Garrett, Starr Mitchell, the Pioneers Association, Loblolly Creamery and Rachel & Bill Worthen. As guests, you can sample the eggnogs and vote for the People’s Choice Award for the best eggnog and the Not Your Great, Great, Great Grandfather’s Eggnog Award for the best untraditional eggnog. Our celebrity tasters will choose the Taster’s Choice Award and the Egg, No Nog Award for the best non-alcoholic eggnog.
Special guest judge will be Liz Williams, founder of the Southern Food and Beverage Museum in New Orleans. Later, Liz will be be in the Museum Store with a selection of her books, along with Kat Robinson, with her most recent book "The Arkansas Barbecue Traveler". On the museum’s grounds, we’ll have roasted pecans and cider in the Brownlee Kitchen as well as historic holiday carols around the fire.
As always, you’ll find the best of Arkansas-made holiday shopping in the Museum Store. Museum members get a 15% discount!
