Eggnog from Scratch

Submitted by: MGM Grand 
It is relatively easy to toss a few quarts of eggnog and a bottle of rum into a punch bowl, but take the time to make some eggnog from scratch and you will be amazed how great real eggnog can be.

Don's Friend Tonja's Cousin Toni's Boyfriend's Grandmother's Eggnog

Tonja was born in the 1940's and this is her cousin Toni's boyfriend's grandmother's eggnog, so I'm guessing this is from the mid-1800's and probably dates much earlier. The original recipe called for half milk and half cream, but I use half and half. Delicious and simple, but be warned, Granny apparently liked a kick! I've made it from scratch and with the modern equivalents and it's fantastic either way. Do yourself a favor and use a mixer for everything. Those who like eggnog LOVE this recipe. I never leave a party with leftovers.

Whipped cream and rum are folded into a cooked vanilla custard in this version of the seasonal beverage. When serving, rest the bowl of eggnog in a bowl of ice.

It's taken me several years to perfect this recipe. Now everyone asks, 'When are you making the eggnog?!!' This uses cooked eggs for safety, and you can use more or less rum to taste. It's a bit of work to make, but well worth it. You'll never buy store-bought eggnog again! Enjoy!

This rich eggnog is made the old-fashioned way by blending beaten egg yolks, whipped egg whites, sugar, and heavy cream with bourbon, rum and brandy. A dusting of nutmeg accents the creamy flavors. 

Early American Eggnog

This traditional version of classic eggnog is suspected of having roots dating to George Washington's era, but it certainly pulls out all the stops. A creamy blend of egg yolks, egg whites, heavy cream, milk, rum, brandy, and sherry, it requires aging at least 5 to 10 days to achieve its remarkable mellow taste.

This coffee drink is one of my favorites. With its rum and light chocolate taste, it's perfect for a cold winter day.
