Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 My dd likes her eggnog to taste like it came from a carton. I just throw and egg, milk, a bit of cream and some sucanat into a blender and whir it up. Other wise I make it the 'hard' way... whipping the egg white, whipping the cream and whipping the milk/yolk/sugar and then fold it all together.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 > Just want to know if anyone has a good recipe for nonalcholic Eggnog > out there? Most that i find cook the eggs and dairy. > Thanks My Eggnog Recipe Put room temp milk in blender. Grate nutmeg over blender. Optionally grate cinnamon over blender. Optionally add vanilla. Optionally add honey. Optionally add cream. Optionally add whatever the heck else you want because you are a free person and life doesn't come with a book of rules. Blend. Add lots of egg yolks. Blend again briefly. Sip. I've never tried it with cream because I've never had any on hand when I've made eggnog, so it's not very thick, but some people have said they like the lighter consistency. It's so ridiculously delicious that it doesn't feel like anything's missing to me. I say " room temp " because that's how you can really perceive the great flavor of milk. It has nothing to do specifically with eggnog. If you want to be a vulgar anti-gourmet and use cold milk, noone will stop you, but if you're not seeking refined aesthetic experiences with food, then why bother trying to make something this delicious in the first place? Why not just put all your food in a food processor, make a human chow and hold your nose while you shovel it in your mouth as fast as possible? Okay, rant over. I say " sip " because all fine beverages should be sipped. If you want to gulp your eggnog or milk or whatever... uh, nevermind--see above.

They sound like mine. Exaggeration does have its usefulness in sarcastic humour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, more than several nights a week my sipping beverage at bedtime is one egg yolk, a little dribble of vanilla, 3 drops of stevia, a drizzle of agave nectar (anyone know if this is really an OK sweetener?) and drum roll please kefir! Stirred up, it has that wonderful thick rich consistancy of eggnog and the taste is there too if you add some nutmeg. Then I sleep like a baby! I call it my beauty drink. I've added about an oz raw cream when I've extra on hand, just for the extravagance of it all! Don't know if it would pass very well for more of a traditional commercial tasting eggnog - but I don't care, it's decadent in my book!
