Two days prior to the incident, a large quantity of whiskey was smuggled into the academy to make eggnog for the party, giving the riot its name.
Before the widespread availability of electric blenders, milkshake-type drinks were more like eggnog, or they were a hand-shaken mixture of crushed ice and milk, sugar, and flavorings.
Eggnog may be added as a flavoring to food or drinks such as coffee and tea.
Though eggnog is high in fat and cholesterol, low-fat and no-sugar formulations are available using skimmed or lowfat milk.
This time, when the chemists arrived, they declared that they tested positive for arsenic, with the eggnog containing enough to poison ten persons.
The rich and creamy drink has a smooth, custard-like flavor and is similar to eggnog.
It is made from egg yolks, sugar, and flavourings such as honey, vanilla, cocoa or rum, rather close to eggnog.
They particularly enjoyed partaking in ale, oysters, eggnog, and whatever other fineries their meager budgets could afford.
