RUM POPO (BELIZE EGG NOG)



Just in time for all of the holidays, Egg Nog or Rum Popo as it is called in Belize.  Made with Belize Rum, if you happen to be so lucky to have some on hand is the perfect holiday drink.  I found this recipe on Belizelive.net.  I had never had egg nog until last Christmas and I thought I would give it a try.  It was actually pretty good and I plan on making more this year.  CHEERS!
