Time P30D

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 large eggs (pasteurized if you need peace of mind)
1 lb sugar
1 pint half-and-half cream
1 pint whole milk
1 pint heavy cream
1 cup jamaican rum
1 cup cognac
1 cup Bourbon
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (plus more for serving)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Separate the eggs and store the whites for another purpose.
  • Beat the yolks with the sugar and nutmeg in a large mixing bowl until the mixture lightens in color and falls off the whisk in a solid "ribbon.".
  • Combine dairy, booze and salt in a second bowl or pitcher and then slowly beat into the egg mixture.
  • Move to a large glass jar (or a couple of smaller ones) and store in the fridge for a minimum of 2 weeks. A month would be better, and two better still. In fact, there's nothing that says you couldn't age it a year, but I've just never been able to wait that long. (And yes, you can also drink it right away.).
  • Serve in mugs or cups topped with a little extra nutmeg grated right on top.

I'm not a big fan of eggnog, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so rich and creamy, and the spices are perfectly balanced. I'll definitely be making this again.
