(BPT) - There are many things that make the holidays special, but two that tend to stand out above the rest are family and food.

For example, enjoying a glass of eggnog with loved ones is a treasured tradition for many people. But did you know that eggnog can also be enjoyed as a delicious and versatile ingredient in other drinks, entrees and desserts? You can take this holiday tradition and give it a twist by trying new eggnog recipes to make delicious creations with the people you care about the most.

You can easily brighten your holiday season by incorporating this creamy holiday drink into your favorite mealtimes. To inspire you, Organic Valley^® shares five imaginative and festive recipes featuring delicious Organic Valley^® Reduced Fat Eggnog.

1. Eggnog waffles

Eggnog waffles are a creative twist on a classic breakfast that the whole family will enjoy. Simply add eggnog to the waffle batter and prepare as usual. As soon as that first batch starts to brown and that irresistible smell fills your home, you'll feel the joy of the season. This is a fun recipe to make with your kids, so you can create lasting holiday memories.

2. Sparkling eggnog

What's better than drinking eggnog this holiday season? Adding some sparkle to it! Just grab some creamy, delicious eggnog and add sparking water and spiced simple syrup. A cinnamon stick and dash of cinnamon garnish are optional but add festive flare. At the end, you'll have a drink that feels fun, fizzy and indulgent.

3. Eggnog 'Swedish' meatballs

Eggnog in meatballs? It's not as crazy as it might seem - and way more delicious than you'd expect. A half cup of eggnog acts as a binding agent that brings more than a creamy texture to the mixture. It has just enough spice to complement the meat, eggs, Parmesan cheese and panko. It's a fun way to use traditional seasonal flavors to reinvent a holiday meal.

4. Eggnog cookies

What's better than sipping eggnog while eating cookies? Combining them to create a festive, mouthwatering cookie. The trick is to create eggnog icing, like the one featured in Organic Valley's recipe for eggnog cookies. Ready the family for some holiday baking and try this new recipe that will soon become a favorite.

5. Eggnog panna cotta

Panna cotta is a luxurious dessert, and you can give it a holiday remix by adding eggnog. Eggnog panna cotta takes 5 minutes to whip up and a couple of hours to cool. However, the jiggly custard's depth, creaminess and seasonal flavor will have your family assuming you fussed over this Italian dish. They'll enjoy the complex taste while you appreciate the recipe's simplicity.

These inspiring recipes will have you rethinking this classic holiday drink. Best of all, you can feel good when you purchase Organic Valley Reduced Fat Eggnog. This made-from-scratch recipe uses high-quality organic ingredients, including milk from small family farms where cows are raised without antibiotics, synthetic hormones, toxic pesticides or GMOs.

You can find these five recipes and more at OrganicValley.coop. Let them inspire you this season to host friends and spend time with family while enjoying a wonderful holiday drink or treat.
