Creamy Eggnog Recipe

 Ingredients You’ll Need

Directions

  1. Whisk the Base: Separate the eggs. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with powdered rock sugar and a pinch of Himalayan salt until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.
  2. Warm the Milk:  In a saucepan, gently heat the milk, cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Don't boil.
  3. Temper the Eggs:  Slowly ladle a few tablespoons of the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling. Gradually pour the tempered yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Cook on low, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  4. Chill: Remove from the heat and strain into a bowl for a velvety finish. Stir in the vanilla extract and let it cool. 
  5. Serve: Pour into glasses over ice, sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg, and enjoy this creamy festive beverage.

Creamy Eggnog is more than just a drink, making it is an act of joy, warmth, and togetherness. Whether you’re whipping it up with kids or serving it at a lively holiday gathering, this creamy classic remains a beloved favorite and a perfect Thanksgiving treat as well.
