Ingredients
- 1 dozen large eggs
- 1 quart of heavy whipping cream
- 2 quarts of milk
- 1 pound of 10x confectionary sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Fresh grated nutmeg (or pre-grated from store)
- 1 gallon empty container (say, an empty plastic milk container)
- 1 ½ gallon empty container
Method
- Separate eggs into egg whites and egg yolks into 2 bowls.
- Whip egg whites until stiff (easier if 1 cup of 10x sugar is added first before whipping).
- Whip heavy cream until stiff (easier if 1 cup of 10x sugar is added first before whipping) in a separate bowl.
- Pour whipped egg whites, whipped cream and 2 quarts of milk (any kind of milk will do) into a VERY LARGE bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Add remaining sugar, vanilla extract and nutmeg to taste to the egg yolks and whisk until thick and pasty.
- Add the egg yolks to the big bowl of cream, milk egg whites etc and mix thoroughly.
You will need at least a one gallon container plus a half gallon container to put the mixture into when done mixing.
Let the egg nog sit for 24 hours in the refrigerator before tasting. Shake container thoroughly before pouring a drink--EACH and EVERY Time.
Add spirits to individual glasses if desired.
