Personally, I have no qualms about drinking eggnog made from uncooked eggs. I'm not immuno-compromised and eggs are pretty
fresh in my kitchen at Christmas (all that baking, of course).
This eggnog is so simple it barely deserves a recipe, and the measurements are mere guidelines. Experiment with bourbon and
brandy!
Ingredients
6 eggs
200 g sugar
0.5 tsp salt
240 mL rum (or to taste)
One of:
950 mL light cream
950 mL whole milk
950 mL half and half
0.5 tsp vanilla
grated nutmeg
ground cinnamon (optional)
Directions
Beat eggs until light and foamy. Add sugar and salt, and beat until thick and lemon-colored. Gently stir in the cream or milk,
vanilla and cinnamon. Chill. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
