Christmas etiquette: Ainsley & Hayden learn tips to be the perfect guest or host

‘Fox & Friends’ co-host Ainsley Earhardt learns important manners alongside kids for the holidays.

It's like spiked egg nog, without the egg. 

That's how BOCADO Bar & Diner – the Southern American bar and diner located in Charlotte, NC's South End neighborhood – describes its Pa-Rum-Pum-Pum Punch. 

The cocktail is BOCADO's take on a holiday-themed Milk Punch, which is usually made with bourbon, and originated in New Orleans, Louisiana. Milk Punch is normally garnished with nutmeg, but BOCADO's version uses pumpkin pie spice instead.  BOCADO's Bar Manager William Talbott's rendition is a soothing and creamy pick-me-up with subtle holiday spice, the restaurant told FOX News.
