Classic Holiday Eggnog Recipes

CLASSIC EGGNOG

Classic Eggnog image

Once you taste homemade eggnog, you'll never go back to the stuff in the carton. This is our go-to version for the holiday season. It's festive and decadent, laced with nutmeg and vanilla. We lightened it up by folding in whipped cream and made the booze optional so that it's good for young and old alike.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, plus more for topping
1/2 cup cold rum or brandy (optional)
Cinnamon sticks, for serving

Steps:

Whisk the eggs, egg yolk and sugar in a bowl until combined. Heat the milk and 1/2 cup heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat until steaming; do not boil. Remove from the heat. Whisk 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, then whisk the egg mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon and a thermometer registers 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes. (Do not boil or the eggs will curdle.)
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl and stir in the vanilla and nutmeg. Let cool at room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or up to 1 week.
Whisk the remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Slowly whisk the whipped cream into the chilled eggnog mixture, then whisk in the rum. Pour into glasses, sprinkle with nutmeg and serve with cinnamon sticks.

CLASSIC EGGNOG

Classic Eggnog image

Aaron Goldfarb, a liquor writer who was raised Jewish, was not introduced to the joys of eggnog until he married a woman who loved Christmas. Making a batch of homemade eggnog became his self-designated duty at their annual Christmas party in Park Slope, Brooklyn. For the spirits, Mr. Goldfarb prefers Maker's Mark or another bourbon with a heavy wheat content, which lends sweetness. He also cautions against using spiced rum, as he feels the spirits involved already possess enough intrinsic baking-spice qualities. Mr. Goldfarb loves a slightly aged nog; see Tip for his advice.

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

8 large eggs
4 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
2/3 cup granulated sugar
4 ounces bourbon
4 ounces dark rum
4 ounces Cognac or apple brandy
Whole nutmeg, for garnish

Steps:

Separate the egg yolks from the whites. In a stand mixer, beat the whites on high speed until transformed into a meringue-like consistency with soft peaks.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the milk, cream, sugar, bourbon, rum and Cognac or brandy until a smooth texture is achieved. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until combined.
Transfer eggnog into a large serving bowl. Chill overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
To serve, ladle a few ounces into a mug or glass and grate fresh nutmeg over the surface. For ideal flavor, mix will keep in the refrigerator up to two weeks, but can last longer.

20 BEST HOLIDAY EGGNOG COCKTAIL RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS

From thespruceeats.com

Homemade Eggnog. Keep holiday traditions alive (or start new ones) with an old-fashioned eggnog recipe. Perfect for a small party, it includes all the basics, and there's an option for cooked eggnog if you're wary of drinking raw eggs.
Traditional Rum Eggnog. On a smaller scale, pull out your cocktail shaker to quickly make eggnog for just one or two people. Due to the base liquor, this rum eggnog recipe creates a slightly sweeter cocktail.
Brandy Eggnog. When you don't want to waste any time, this brandy eggnog is a great option. It's a favorite recipe among bartenders, has a classic brandy base, and requires just three other ingredients.
Bourbon Eggnog. A variation of the traditional recipe, this bourbon eggnog is filled with layers of flavor. It uses three liquors, and the combination of whiskey, cognac, and orange liqueur is a brilliant foundation for the seasonal spices.
Nonalcoholic Eggnog. Eggnog is a beverage that everyone can enjoy. While you can simply skip the liquor in any recipe, this eggnog is nonalcoholic from the very start.
Keto Eggnog. For anyone who wants to avoid sugar, keto eggnog is ideal. The recipe uses two sugar-free sweeteners and unsweetened almond milk. Since heavy cream is keto, it's included to ensure a luscious beverage, though coconut milk is an option.
Vegan Eggnog. That's right, eggnog without eggs! The key to this recipe is a combination of silken (soft) tofu and soy milk blended with vanilla extract and rum or brandy.
Coquito. Another eggless option, the coquito is Puerto Rico's spin on eggnog. Rather than eggs, this punch drink relies on coconut, rum, and traditional spices, and it's best served cold.
Easy Rum Eggnog. Aged rum and ruby port add a dark, complex background flavor to this easy eggnog recipe. It's one of the quick versions that is shaken up by the glass, and in just a few minutes, you'll have luscious eggnog to enjoy without any extra fuss.
Gingerbread Eggnog. A twist on traditional recipes, the gingerbread eggnog is filled with delicious flavors and can quickly get any nog-hater to flip to the other side.
