Eggnog Recipe

Step 6: Serve

Ladle out the eggnog into your fancy cups, and top with a bit more freshly grated nutmeg.

If the eggnog has separated, give it a quick (gentle!) stir before serving.  Don't let the eggnog sit out too long - even if it does have alcohol, refrigerate to avoid spoilage.  I've never had this problem:  we always drink it so fast there's nothing left to worry about!  Thankfully it's fast to make more, because you'll never be able to drink the commercial stuff again.

Happy Holidays, and enjoy your eggnog!

Definitely going to make this tomorrow. Is there no allspice in this? I thought allspice was in eggnog.

Anyways, now that I know that I can have eggnog at any point in the year, and I am therefore no longer a slave to the grocery store market, I AM TEN TIMES HAPPIER~

Thank you for this recipe, I just made it and it turned out delicious. Also, it was the first time ever that I've tried eggnog and I loved it :D

Wow! I've only had store bought eggnog once in my life and that was over 20 years ago. This recipe is amazing! Looks like we have a new holiday tradition to add. THANKS!

is that fungus amungus?

[canida]

Yes, one of them is fungus - guess which one!

I accidently put in too much sugar, but its still really really good. It tastes a little too frothy though. Still good. Good job.

[canida]

Thanks!

If you want it less frothy, then just mix the whites in a bit more thoroughly - you can whisk part in, then fold in the rest.

Very good recipe and directions.  Our egg white portion didn't come out nearly as chunky but overall it still tasted good.

[canida]

Excellent!  I'm glad it turned out well for you.

The chunkiness depends on how long you beat the egg whites, and how thoroughly you incorporate them as you fold the mixture together.  I try to leave chunks, but eggnog lovers differ on that point!
