What’s Christmas Milk, you ask?

It’s egg nog. How did it get a new name? From Joey Fausel.

Heidi and Shane Fausel, the company founders, adopted Joey at age eight. He kept asking his new “forever family” for a drink that he had enjoyed in a foster home. He knew neither the name nor the ingredients. All he could remember was that it “tasted like Christmas.”

Finally, during holiday season, his parents gave him a taste of eggnog. He excaimed, “That’s it! It’s Christmas Milk!”

A few months later, Heidi lost her job, and was pondering her next move. She remembered Christmas milk. They couple thought about entrepreneurship, called a dairy and created an eggnog that “tastes like melted vanilla ice cream.”

We can confirm: It is delicious. And there’s also equally delicious Christmas Milk ice cream, in Original French Vanilla Eggnog Ice Cream, as well as Chocolate Swirl and Sea Salt Caramel.

The Fausels, who have since adopted two sisters and a brother for Joey, donate 10% of sales to Second Chances, a program at the Fort Worth, Texas Gladney Center for Adoption, which works to find foster children “forever families.”

So Christmas Milk not only tastes great; you’ll feel great about buying it.
