The internet has spoken and hot chocolate and eggnog top the list of favorite winter drinks.

The website YouGov put up a poll, because that’s it’s entire purpose as a site, asking for favorite wintry beverages. The results are actually pretty alcohol-filled, though in 2020, I expected more “straight whiskey” or “Tequila. Lots of tequila.”

Here’s the results:

  1. Hot chocolate – 32%
  2. Eggnog – 25%
  3. Apple cider – 12%
  4. Peppermint-flavored coffee – 7%
  5. Mulled cider – 4%
  6. Mulled wine – 4%
  7. Hot toddy – 3%
  8. Hot buttered rum – 3%
  9. Coquito – 2%
  10. Mead – 1%

I’m assuming some of these are on here purely because it sounds like something you should drink in the winter. Outside of renaissance fairs, does anyone really drink mead? Has anyone actually had it?
