Ingredients
- 6 large Egg yolks
- 3 cups Granulated sugar
- 4 cups Whole milk
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1.5 cups Bourbon
- 1 cup Dark rum
- 0.5 cup Cognac
- 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Freshly grated nutmeg (plus more for garnish)
- 6 large Egg whites
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until the mixture becomes pale and slightly thick, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 2
Gradually add the whole milk, heavy cream, bourbon, rum, and cognac to the yolk mixture, whisking continuously to ensure everything is well combined.
Step 3
Stir in the vanilla extract and freshly grated nutmeg. Set the mixture aside.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. This will take about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer on medium-high speed.
Step 5
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the prepared eggnog base. This will give the eggnog a light and frothy texture.
Step 6
Transfer the eggnog to a large pitcher or punch bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until completely cold.
Step 7
Before serving, give the eggnog a quick stir to ensure it is well-mixed.
Step 8
Ladle the chilled eggnog into cups or glasses, and garnish with a light sprinkle of freshly grated nutmeg on top.
