For an even richer flavor, consider infusing the milk with a vanilla bean by gently simmering it before adding to the other ingredients. Chill the eggnog for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld beautifully. Overnight chilling is even better! If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the rum and add an additional teaspoon of vanilla extract. For a touch of elegance, garnish with a cinnamon stick or a star anise alongside the nutmeg.

Mar 4, 2025I was a bit intimidated by the egg whites, but the instructions were so clear that it was actually quite easy. Will definitely be making this again!

Aug 16, 2024I've made eggnog before, but this one is by far the best. The addition of the rum gives it such a lovely warmth. Thank you for sharing!
