Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 cup brandy, rum, or bourbon (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Separate the egg yolks from the whites and place the yolks in a large mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside for another use or discard them if not needed.
Step 2
Using a whisk or hand mixer, beat the egg yolks until they become slightly lighter in color and creamy in texture, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Gradually add the sugar to the egg yolks, whisking constantly, until the mixture becomes smooth and fully combined.
Step 4
Slowly pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Stir in the vanilla extract and ground nutmeg. If using alcohol, add it at this stage and mix well.
Step 6
Transfer the eggnog to a pitcher or serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill and allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 7
When ready to serve, give the eggnog a quick stir, then pour into individual glasses.
Step 8
Garnish each serving with a light sprinkling of ground cinnamon. Serve cold and enjoy!
