Amazing Eggnog Recipe

My traditional Eggnog recipe is rich and creamy with simply the best balance of sweetness and spice. Bourbon adds an extra kick, and the addition of heavy cream makes this cocktail reminiscent of melted ice cream. If your memories of eggnog always include a cardboard carton, you must try this recipe. This homemade version has so much more flavor than store-bought eggnog, and you can personalize the flavors too!

Made this recipe for the winter solstice holiday. Tasted even better the next day after "marinating" in the fridge over night. Was quite sweet for my linking and made a second batch with less sugar which was perfect. Sweeten to preference. Delicious!!

I married my best friend on the 1st of this month, we've been together over 6 years and we always buy him both alcoholic and non alcoholic egg nog in December. This year i want to surprise him with home made eggnog for our first christmas married.

I'm so glad you kept going and refined your videos, you are an incredible teacher in a really simple way. I've learned so many things from watching your videos. Thank you.

i really appreciate your insights about cookware! so many home bakers (me included) follow recipes to a T and end up heartbroken because of the wrong pan or device.
Please keep it up!

I never liked eggnog until I had it homemade at a Jamaican friend’s home. WOW! Store-bought should be outlawed! I’ve made homemade ever since. Freshly grated nutmeg is a must.

This recipe came at the right time ! I just decided that I should make this for the first time.

Interesting recipe, must try that version, here in UK we use all the egg and we don’t use alcohol in it. It dates back to C14th and uses milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla essence and spices. Spices vary, but usually nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice and mixed spices. Firstly we beat the entire egg(s), boil about 2 litres of milk, cool the milk until warm, add egg(s), sugar beat in until combined. Finally add vanilla and spices and serve immediately.

Now that I've watched this three times on two different days...here I go! 👩‍🍳

Neat eggnog story.
Years ago I made homemade eggnog for the first time. It was all going well, I thought, but I was cooking, and baking, and parenting, all at the same time.
And I ended up over stirring the eggnog! I was super upset at first, thinking I'd ruined it. Then it cooled a tad, and I realized that I'd accidentally made whipped eggnog! It was a hit! It went with the pumpkin pies perfectly!
Sadly, I haven't been able to recreate that accidental delicacy since. I'm gonna keep trying though.

Oh John, bless, that original video was iconic! Look how far you've come! Congrats.

When I was a child, my Mom made Egg Nog every Christmas. She never spiked it. It was so good.

This is my favorite eggnog recipe I've tried so far. Added a half cup more bourbon and added some ground cloves also. Best eggnog I've ever had.

[JackHallowLantern]

I've always wanted to make my own eggnog. I don't drink, so I wont be adding any booze, but it looks absolutely positively yummy 😊 Ill be trying it this holiday season for sure! Might even replace my go-to apple cider...!

I am so, so sick right now, and this video is so comforting. Thank you and happy holidays

For the longest time I just dismissed Eggnog till I heard John description of "poor able custard". Made a batch for Christmas and today 1 day of February here I am making my second btach. ❤ I do used all dark rum. Next time I will do the Bourbon 😊 Delicious

Thank you, I was very curious about eggnog. Never had it before. I might try it for the holidays.

[cesarbahar]

Dear John, thank you for your eggnog recipe. It looks delicious. 🎄🥰🏡

[earthzeroapothecary]

Mine is chilling right now!! We used our raw milk and cream and eggs from our homestead. I also added a pinch of allspice and cinnamon in addition to the freshly ground nutmeg!!

[Craig-lpnw]

Hi john, I'm from the UK and buying eggnog is quite a task so my girlfriend and I decided to try your recipe, we already had success with your banana bread so this Christmas we are trying this. I love your recipes as they are easy to follow. Thank you🙂🙂

I made this tonight. It was fantastic! Wow! And what fun to see your early video, too.
