GRANDMA'S SWINGIN' EGGNOG

A potent holiday party eggnog drink

Eggnog is a traditional holiday party drink. This recipe makes a rich and powerful eggnog.

Ingredients

(Serves 20)

6 egg yolks
100 g sugar (white granulated)
500 ml milk
500 ml light rum
500 ml whipping cream

Procedure

Beat yolks until light. Add sugar and mix well. Add milk and rum. Mix well, then chill for at least 3 hours.
One hour before serving, whip cream and stir into chilled mixture. Return to refrigerator for an hour.
Serve in punch cups and dust with nutmeg.

Notes

This stuff is POTENT, even if you reduce the rum by half. Brandy, dark rum or bourbon may be substituted for the light rum. If you prefer a nonalcoholic eggnog, leave out the booze altogether. With or without booze, this eggnog is very rich, and very good.

Rating

Difficulty: easy.
Time: 5 minutes preparation, 3 or more hours cooling.
