Number Of Ingredients 8

6 large eggs, separated
3/4 c superfine sugar
2 c whole milk
3 c heavy cream, plus more for garnish
1/2 c bourbon, preferably maker's mark
1/4 c dark rum, preferably mount gay
1/4 c cognac, preferably remi martin grand cru
freshly grated nutmeg, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • 1. Beat yolks in a very large bowl until thick and pale. Slowly beat in sugar. --- I did not have a superfine sugar so we put it in the Vita-mix and it worked out great. Whisk in milk and cream.
  • 2. Mix in 3 choices of alcohol of bourbon, rum, and Cognac. (Cover, and refrigerate for up to 1 day.) --- If not refrigerating overnight, just put some ice in the nog for 10 minutes or so to get nice and cold and strain out the ice immediately.
  • 3. Just before serving, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold whites into the eggnog mixture. Whisk remaining 1 cup cream until stiff peaks form, and fold into eggnog. (Alternatively, you can fold half the whipped cream into eggnog, and top with remaining half.) Sprinkle with nutmeg. --- We did this 1/2 and 1/2 along with topping of the fresh nutmeg.
  • 4. Cook's Note The egg yolks and whites in this recipe are not cooked. This dish should not be prepared for pregnant women, the elderly, or anyone whose health is compromised.
