Peggy, seriously.......

I have tried EggNog and didn't dis-like it, however it certainly isn't a drink of choice...
 
I since made it, egg nog that is and I can safely say it's not to my liking. Not the kind of think for me.
 
I looked up my grandma's recipe for eggnog. You might like this better, but making it is a bit more involved.

This serves 8 people, so is good for a party or family get-together -

6 eggs
3 cups milk
8 tablespoons sugar
3 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Cinnamon

To prepare -

In a large bowl, beat the eggs using an electric beater (if available).
Then add milk, followed by the sugar.
Continue beating until mixture thickens slightly.
Add in the vanilla extract and hand stir in.

Pour this mixture into a pitcher, mix in ground nutmeg.

Cover pitcher with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled (at least 3 hours).
Pour into glasses (or cups), at this point you may add alcohol (rum is best), sprinkle cinnamon on top of eggnog, and serve.

Serves: 8.
 
Might want to experiment with putting some nutmeg on top of each glass instead of, or in addition to the Cinnamon, especially if you have mixed anything else in.

yeah you could, but this is the way granny made hers.
 
Peggy, do you separate yolk and glair?

But I think I prefer egg liqueur (advocaat). They sell some damn good here. ;)

hahahaha My Grandmother used to drink Advocaat and lemonade lol I remember trying it as a kid.
 
I forgot who it was, I think a cousin of mine, made an egg-nog style drink a couple of New Years' ago. It had no eggs in it, and little alcohol, but was quite tasty. It was apt to having a very delicious pumpkin pie, if you're into pumpkin pie. Heavy cream, frapped cooked and sweetened pumpkin, fresh ground spices, and a blend of some brandy and port.

Sorry you lost me after "little alcohol" :(
 
Doesn't that curdle? :confused:


How would I know :p I was 7 at the time lol it tasted pretty vile to me, and I am not going to go and buy a bottle to experiment :p

I do recall it made my Granny and my Mother pretty silly though :D hehehe
