It is certainly a good recipe, though I myself am not a big eggnog fan. I do have to say, despite the tiny amount of alcohol in this, it is still probably not a good idea to consume this while pregnant, nursing, or to give it to small children. Try using a tsp of Rum Extract instead to get the flavor right.

Very good! What attracted me to this recipe is that it uses the egg yolks and the whites. (What would I do with 12 egg whites?) It seemed like it made a small batch (5 servings, and only 4 eggs), so I made a double batch. But my largest bowl wasn't big enough, so I stopped at 7 cups of milk instead of 9, which helped it stay a little thicker. I wouldn't have wanted to add any more milk. At first there was hardly any flavor to it, but then I realized I had forgotten to double the sugar and vanilla! As soon as I fixed it, the taste was perfect! It was still a little thinner than store-bought, but still very good. (I don't drink, so I skipped the rum.) So my advice is just use less milk -- or try whipped cream like another reviewer suggested.

Pretty Darn good! I miss Fggnog so much. It isn't sold here in Ireland (or at least I haven't found it) and it was something my mother always got some (store bought) eggnog when I was growing up. This Recipe was tastey - I only had low fat milk - I think with full milk or maybe a bit of double cream or something it might make it a bit thicker. I enjoyed it though!

I tripled the rum and STILL no one could taste it! That's not important, though, since I'll add more next time. What is important is that this is a FANTASTIC recipe! It was all gone quickly at my family's Christmas party. I'm going to make a triple batch tonight for Christmas this week. Yummy!!

It just tasted like unfrozen ice cream mix, nothing at all like egg nog...not even once you get past all the foam on top. Thanks anyway!

This was the first time I ever tasted, let alone made, eggnog. I loved it! Other first-timers and experienced eggnog drinkers liked it as well. Cruzan is my favorite brand of rum, and it seemed to work just fine.

i follow the recipie with the exception of a couple sugestion from the review section by; 1, tempering the egg yoke/sewwtend condensed milk, 2, subing 1/2 cup of milk with 1/2 cup of half and half, and cutting the rest of the milk to 3 and 1/2 cups making a total of 4 cups insted of the recomended 4 and 1/2 cups of milk, 3, 1 whole nutmeg ground fresh instede of the 1/4tsp sugested (personal preference; nutmeg is what gives eggnog is unique flavor).

This was great! I used eggs that were pasteurized in the shell since I had a guest who was pregnant and some who were elderly.

My tastebuds weren't jumping for joy with this recipe. The flavor was quite good but the consistancy was off. The beaten egg whites made it frothy instead of creamy and it separates quickly. You end up drinking a thin flavorful liguid with a bunch of foam left in the glass when your finished. I'm still looking for a recipe that has a heavy cream in it and is a smooth, thick egg nog.

This is a pretty good recipe, the best i could find yet! but at some points the egg will cook and solidify, giving a certain texture that most wouldn't appreciate. So if i could recommend, possibly straining out the cooked egg whites. It'll make a huge difference.

Great recipe! We made this several times over the holiday season and it was a hit every time! We did modify as others have, by cooking the egg whites before adding them to the mix - worked out great as long as you stir stir stir!!! :) we added a dash of cinnamon as well.

YUMMY! I made this for my Christmas party and everyone loved it! I doubled the recipe but kept the amount of rum the same as I prefer my nog to be less boozy, but left the bottle near the punch bowl so others could flavor to tasts. Didn't have allspice, so I used whole cloves. My friend who LOVES egg nog said it was better than store bought!

I usually make a cooked eggnog but this year I was pressed for time and decided to try this non-cooked version. It was just ok. I thought it was a bit too thin and could've used more spice. The sweetness wasn't quite right either. I think maybe sweetened condensed milk isn't the right choice. I will go back to using the Amazingly Good Eggnog recipe on this site from now on.

I thought it was excellent. I didn't include the rum, and I cooked the yolk with the condensed milk since my wife is pregnant. I will use this recipe again. :-)
