Egg-flip?  If you add liqeur, you get eggnog, I think.  In Norway 
it's called "eggedosis".  

I'll see if i can get by a bookstore with the Norwegian edition of 
PS, and see what the Norwegians feed Prof. Humlesnurr.  It's a bit 
difficult, though - I live in a place with bus-connection only every 
Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday...
