Advocaat, a creamy and rich alcoholic beverage, hails from the Netherlands, where it is often enjoyed during festive occasions. Its name is derived from the Dutch word for "lawyer", with some speculating that the drink was so named because it was believed to be a good lubricant for the throat, helping lawyers to speak smoothly in court. Intriguingly, the original version of Advocaat was made with avocados, not eggs. When Dutch colonists in the Americas attempted to recreate the drink at home, they substituted egg yolks for the avocados, which were not readily available in the Netherlands. The result was the creamy, custard-like beverage we know today as Advocaat.
