In a medium saucepan, heat the soymilk over medium heat until it starts to steam but does not boil. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.
Slowly ladle about 1/2 cup of the hot soymilk into the egg yolk mixture while whisking continuously to temper the eggs and prevent them from scrambling.
Gradually pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining hot soymilk, whisking constantly.
Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of the spoon. This will take 6-8 minutes. Do not let the mixture boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, and salt. If using alcohol, stir it in at this point.
Pour the eggnog into a heat-proof container and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until cold.
Serve the chilled eggnog in glasses, topped with whipped coconut cream or non-dairy whipped topping if desired. Sprinkle with a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg for garnish.
