8 Vegan 'Nog Recipes For The Holidays
This Rawsome Vegan Life

A few days ago, I strolled through the grocery store aisles looking for anything vegan and holiday-themed to satisfy my Christmas cravings. Lo and behold, I spotted vegan eggnog in the dairy-free section. Never before had I seen a vegan version of the confusing drink [what even is eggnog?], but I decided to give it a go. Let's say -- it was interesting. But now, I have this newfound interest in finding other holiday 'nogs to fill my fridge with and share with other plant-based friends. Here's a quick list of vegan eggnog brands and recipes to try before Santa comes in a couple weeks:

1. Silk Nog

I had to start this list with the first vegan eggnog I tried -- Silk's Nog. Dairy-free and stamped with the wonderful vegan emblem, this eggnog is simple, yet tasty, and perfect for vegan eggnog newbies.

2. Califia Farms Holiday Nog

This nog is soy and gluten-free for people with the utmost of allergies. "Maybe you can even meet your sweetheart under the mistletoe while sipping a glass of your new favorite nog," Califia Farms describes on their website.

3. SO Delicious Holiday Nog

SO Delicious has a range of holiday-themed and dairy-free milk. From pumpkin spice to the classic nog, the various coconut milk-based drinks are perfect for any holiday meal or late-night treat. Make Hot Toffee Nog by heating the nog with cinnamon, brown sugar, vanilla and coconut oil -- yum!

4. MALK Pecan MALK Nog

There's no mistaking that this is one of the best nogs on the market. MALK's holiday drink is cold-pressed with one of the shortest [and purest] ingredient lists I have yet to see. Added bonus -- looks great for Instagram pictures.

5. Cashew Nog

Up for a challenge? Try to make your own vegan nog with a combo of cashews, spices, and dates. This recipe from The Roasted Root is paleo, vegan and refined-sugar free!

6. 3 Vegan Nogs

Hot For Food is one of my favorite vegan Youtube channels because of its versatile and unique recipes. Here are three vegan holiday drinks, including a boozy Bailey's nog, to test out.

7. Raw Vegan Nog

This healthy blender recipe includes only eight ingredients and can be made in your home! You can even make your own raw almond milk by blending almonds with water.

8. Vegan Peppermint Nog

Add a sweet taste to your nog by tossing in a few peppermint leaves or drops of mint extract into the mix. "It is a cross between the best tasting smoothie I’ve ever tried and the eggnog I used to drink as a child. I’ll take it!" blogger from Oh She Glows said.

Have a sweet holiday filled with plenty of nog!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
