Cola De Mono - Chile

Although the origins of its name—which translates to "monkey tail"—is largely a mystery, cola de mono has persisted throughout the years. Like eggnog, it's made with milk and spices like nutmeg, but don't worry about getting the two confused. Cola de mono has a healthy dose of a grape spirit called aguardiente, and coffee, making the taste more akin to a White Russian than eggnog. Get the recipe here.
