Which traditional Christmas drink is believed to have originated from the early medieval British drink known as "posset," which was a hot, milky ale-like drink that was also made with eggs and figs?

Although it looked a bit different than today's recipes, many experts believe that eggnog can be traced back to the Medieval British drink known as posset. Early posset was more of a milky, ale-like drink, but in the 13th-century eggs and figs were added. It was 18th Century America where it became a holiday staple, more resembling the drink of today.
