It's beginning to look a lot like a boozy Christmas.

While some people will be looking for hot chocolate and warm milk to go with their cookies, most of us are looking for cocktails to get through the holiday rush.

Now, eggnog is not everyone's favorite, but mixing it with your go-to alcoholic supplement will surely make it a wonderful rest of the year.

Here's 11 cocktails to make and impress all your family and friends:

Rum Eggnog

Spiced or flavored rum can work for any occasion. Captain Morgan? Sure! Mango flavor? Why not.

Brandy Eggnog

If rum is not your style, replace it was some brandy and you'll start singing carols in no time.

Bourbon Eggnog

Just a dose of this special whiskey to send you on a decoration bender around the house.

Blue Nectar Tequila Eggnog

Tequila doesn't have to be for a night out with friends. Relax on the couch with a nice blended eggnog mix.

Coquito

This traditional Puerto Rican drink has Bacardi, cinnamon and coconut milk, so why wouldn't you indulge on this similar eggnog cocktail?

Eggnog Martinis

The fanciest thing you can do is pour your beverage into a martini glass and relax with some traditional holiday movies.

Crown Royal Salted Caramel Eggnog

Make your drink sweeter with a blend of caramel and alcohol. The sweeter, the strong and the merry you'll be.

Fireball & White Chocolate Liquor Eggnog

One glass of this mix drink and you'll be wrapping or buying gifts earlier than expected.

Mudslide Eggnog

Who wouldn't try a drink named mudslide? It sounds like it'll bring a jolly 'ole time.

Spiked Pumpkin Eggnog

Just because Fall is ending, doesn't mean you can't indulge in pumpkin spice flavors anymore.

Tom & Jerry Eggnog

It wouldn't hurt to have a drink named after one of the best cartoons out there.

So don't be a grinch this year and throw yourself a holiday party... even if you're the only one invited.
