"Tom and Jerry" 1820s Eggnog No, not the cat and mouse! In fact, they were probably named after this very popular drink! This eggnog comes from a book from the 1820s, written by Pierce Egan. It was called Life of London: or Days and Nights of Jerry Hawthorne and His Elegant Friend Corinthina Tom. What a name, eh? He invented a special eggnog in the book, calling it of course "Tom and Jerry". I couldn't find any recipe specifically attributed to this book, but this one appears to be its descendant. | |
