Wikipedia says:
The origins, etymology, and even the ingredients used to make the original eggnog drink, are debated. Eggnog, or a very similar drink, may have originated in East Anglia, England. An article[1] by Nanna Rognvaldardottir, an Icelandic food expert, states that the drink adopted the "nog" part of its name from the word "noggin," a middle English phrase used to describe the strong ale, with which it was sometimes mixed. Another name for this English drink was "Egg Flip".
