Well, we all really should have seen this coming. After all, some people are obsessed with Hidden Valley Ranch. So, this year, the company wants to make the holidays as creamy as possible. As a result, Hidden Valley has announced its 2021 "Ranch Holiday Collection." Among the items is a limited-edition Holiday RanchNog Kit. Yes, you read that right!
"What is RanchNog?" you ask? Well, Hidden Valley partnered with mixologists at Whiskey and Rosemary, a trendy cocktail company, to create the new drink. "This ranchified take on the iconic, sometimes polarizing drink marries the creamy, slightly sweet elements of eggnog with the savory, cool and herby flavors of ranch to delight superfans and surprise skeptics with how good it actually is," the website reads. The kit, which costs $50, comes with two glasses, a gold jigger, and Hidden Valley RanchNog seasoning packets. It also comes with a recipe card to show you how to create the holiday cocktail.
While many think that the drink sounds good, even more think RanchNog sounds like an "an abomination." Thankfully, Hidden Valley has plenty of other ranch-inspired items in their holiday collection for fans...
Apart From RanchNog…

In addition to the RanchNog kit, Hidden Valley also has some more typical holiday merchandise to pick up for your ranch-obsessed friends and family members. For instance, they also released the "Yoga Lovers Kit," which comes with a yoga mat towel, hair ties, water bottle, and water bottle stickers, all with ranch-inspired imagery. The Yoga Lovers Kit comes in at $75. Meanwhile, the $110 Pizza Lovers Kit includes, as you might imagine, a pizza cutter, pizza stickers, and a pizza-themed blanket. However, perhaps most interesting of all is a $300 suitcase with ranch icons all over it. Yes, $300!
So, if you have a ranch-loving family member or best friend, it might be time to pick them up some ranchy items! You can pick up all of the items in Hidden Valley's 2021 Holiday Collection on their website. Just make sure to head over there soon - the company warned ranch-lovers on Twitter that they expect most items to sell out!
Over the past year, Hidden Valley has seriously amped up its holiday selection. In addition to the winter holiday items, the company also released Halloween ranch packets earlier this year. What will come next: Valentines' Day ranch or ranch-inspired beach towels for summer 2022? We will have to wait and see!
