Eggnog

Eggnog is a creamy, egg-yolk-based holiday drink with just the right amount of spice that can be made with or without alcohol.It’s delicious either way! If you are a fan of this drink, I also have Blender Eggnog you may want to try.Eggnog Eggnog is a drink that has been around for hundreds of years and has definitely been a sign (or drink) of the holiday season for many.

It starts appearing in grocery stores during the winter months, but this homemade eggnog drink recipe is far better than anything you can buy at the store! And, when you make your own batch, you know exactly what is going into it without all the added preservatives.Better yet, you can adapt the recipe for all ages, making it a Christmas mocktail recipe if you leave out the alcohol.Ingredients Eggs: You will need 6 large egg yolks for this recipe.

Although you will not use the egg whites, save them! I will give you a few recipes which you can use so they don’t go to waste.Spices: Cinnamon and nutmeg will go into the eggnog mixture, but don’t put them away.You may want to sprinkle one or the other on top of the drink when serving.

Heavy Whipping Cream: Heavy whipping cream, also known as heavy cream, is a liquid with 36-40% fat.I added a cup to my eggnog recipe, but you may want to add more if it is too thick for your liking.Alcohol: Brandy is a common spirit added to eggnog.

But, rum, cognac, and even whiskey or bourbon are other popular options if you want a shot of alcohol
