For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of rum or brandy to the eggnog mixture. Ensure the water bath is hot before placing the custards in the oven to promote even cooking. The custards are done when the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly. They will continue to set as they cool. Freshly grated nutmeg is essential for the best flavor.
