My family loves eggnog. But the store bought stuff isn't all that great, so I make a large batch every year. I thought I'd share the recipe with you guys.

Ingredients
1/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
4 cups milk
1/3 t spoon salt
3 table spoons sugar
Nutmeg
1 t spoon rum flavoring or rum to taste

Separate egg yolks from the whites. Add 1/3 cup sugar and 1/3t salt to the yolks. Beat until it makes a custard. Stir into milk and place over medium heat. Stir until the mixture "coats the spoon" since I don't know what the heck that means I go by "until it's frothy and smells like eggnog". Remove from heat and let cool. It's very important that you let it cool completely, adding the whites too soon will make them clump. Nobody likes chunky eggnog. Beat the whites and 3T sugar until foamy. Add whites and rum to the cooled nog. Sprinkle nutmeg on top.


Merry Christmas!

 

I've never tasted it before.

 

just made a batch, haters gonna hate

 

send me some mang

 

hmmmm I like the taste of nog, but the gut-bomb feeling, not so much I'll pass this along to the wife and see if she'll make some

 

that's because you're drinking eggs and milk, two things our bodies have trouble processing
