who's making eggnog?

[Alwayslit]

Got thie recipe from an outstanding BOTL on another site. Started a batch right before Thanksgiving. Does anyone else have any good recipes they'd like to share.


10 eggs, separated
3 cups granulated sugar
1.5 pints (24 fluid ounces) white rum
1 quart heavy cream
1 pint (16 fluid ounces) bourbon whiskey
1 pint (16 fluid ounces) brandy
3 quarts milk
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Beat the egg yolks until smooth. Pour beaten yolk into pot or mixing
bowl having at least a 6-quart capacity. Add the sugar and stir well.
Add the rum slowly and beat to dissolve the sugar. Add the cream and
stir to blend. Add the bourbon, brandy, milk, and spices, mixing well
after each addition. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the egg whites
until frothy and smooth but not too firm, about 3 minutes with an
electric beater on high. Add the egg white to the mixture. Beat the
mixture well, about 5 minutes. Ladle the egg nog into storage bottles,
taking care to portion the foamy top froth equally into the bottles.
Stir the mixture vigorously between bottles to mix up any sugar or
spice sediment. Chill bottles. For a milder, creamier egg nog, drink
within one day. Egg nog can be aged for up to 6 weeks and gets
stronger and more complex with time. Shake bottles at least once a
week to keep mixed, and shake well before serving. Makes about 6
quarts.:bottle:

Me! Different version, though.

10 large eggs, separated
1 cup superfine sugar
3 cups heavy cream
2 cups golden rum
6 tsp. Almond extract
6 tsp. Vanilla extract
Ground nutmeg and cinnamon

Whisk the egg whites with the vanilla and almond extracts into stiff peaks.
Whisk the egg yolks with half the superfine sugar until smooth.
Whisk the heavy cream with the half remaining sugar until it makes stiff peaks.
Take the egg white mixture and fold the egg yolk mixture into it.
Fold the heavy cream mixture into the egg mixture.
Add slowly the rum as ye keep on folding.
Pour in a glass with some ice cubes. Top off with ground cinnamon and nutmeg.

Could have any dark liquor, really. I prefer rum.

I like the idea of almond and vanilla extract.

What was it Dave Attel called eggnog?

"Eggnog, who thought that one up? "I wanna get a little drunk, but I also want some pancakes." You know what eggnog really is. You're not gonna want to hear it, but I'll tell ya. It's elf cum. You might as well pour it down your back and slap your self on the ass."
