Ingredients

• 2 cups Full-fat coconut milk
• 1 cup Unsweetened coconut milk beverage
• 4 large Egg yolks
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch Pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons Optional rum or bourbon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk together the full-fat coconut milk, unsweetened coconut milk beverage, maple syrup, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.

Step 2

Warm the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to steam but does not boil.

Step 3

While the coconut milk mixture is warming, whisk the egg yolks in a separate mixing bowl until they become pale and slightly thickened.

Step 4

Once the coconut milk mixture is warm, slowly pour about 1/2 cup of it into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent them from curdling.

Step 5

Slowly pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the coconut milk, whisking continuously.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and continue stirring the mixture with a wooden spoon or spatula. Cook until the eggnog thickens slightly and coats the back of the spoon, about 5–8 minutes. Do not let it boil.

Step 7

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract (and optional rum or bourbon if using).

Step 8

Let the eggnog cool slightly before transferring it to a container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until chilled.

Step 9

Before serving, whisk the eggnog to blend any settled ingredients. Pour into glasses, sprinkle with a pinch of ground nutmeg, and enjoy!
