I have made this eggnog recipe for the Christmas holiday for over 25 years. Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 12 eggs, separated
- 2 cups white sugar, divided
- 1 quart rum
- 1 quart half-and-half
- 1 quart milk
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Add 1 cup sugar gradually, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
Step 2
Beat egg yolks and remaining 1 cup sugar in a separate bowl until frothy and lightened in color.
Step 3
Fold egg whites into egg yolk mixture gently; pour into a large punch bowl or pitcher. Stir in rum, half-and-half, and milk.
Step 4
Top eggnog with nutmeg; serve with ice.
Cook’s Note:
Substitute heavy whipping cream for the half-and-half, if desired.
