Steps:
- In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar until pale yellow and thick, about 2 minutes. In a medium saucepan, bring milk and salt to a bare simmer. Whisking constantly, slowly pour hot milk mixture into yolk mixture.
- Pour yolk mixture back into saucepan. Add coarsely ground espresso beans. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until mixture is just thick enough to coat back of spoon and hold a line drawn by your finger, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve lined with 4 layers of cheesecloth into a large bowl; discard solids and cheesecloth. Let cool, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Add cream, bourbon, rum, and cognac; cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Whisk remaining 1/4 cup sugar and egg whites in a heatproof mixer bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water. Whisk until sugar is dissolved and mixture is warm (it should feel smooth between your fingers), 2 to 3 minutes. (For fully cooked eggs, a thermometer inserted into meringue should register 160 degrees.) Remove from heat. With a mixer on high speed, beat until stiff peaks form, 5 minutes. Fold into eggnog.
- Pour into glasses (or a punch bowl); top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with finely ground espresso.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality espresso: The espresso is the base of your cappuccino nog, so it's important to use a high-quality espresso that has a rich, full flavor.
- Use fresh milk: Fresh milk will give your cappuccino nog a creamier, richer flavor than milk that has been sitting in the refrigerator for a while.
- Whip the milk properly: The milk should be whipped until it is light and airy, but not so much that it becomes stiff. If the milk is whipped too much, it will become grainy and the cappuccino nog will not be as smooth.
- Use freshly grated nutmeg: Freshly grated nutmeg has a much more intense flavor than pre-ground nutmeg. It will give your cappuccino nog a warm, spicy flavor.
- Serve the cappuccino nog immediately: Cappuccino nog is best enjoyed immediately after it is made. The longer it sits, the more likely it is to separate.
Conclusion:
Cappuccino nog is a delicious and festive holiday drink that is sure to please everyone. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like it strong or mild, sweet or spicy, there is a cappuccino nog recipe out there for you. So gather your ingredients, put on some holiday music, and enjoy a cup of this delicious treat!
