RECIPE FOR RICH EGGNOG..THE REAL..alcoholic STUFF 300YR OLD RECIPE STILL AS GOOD TODAY AS EVER




This serves 4, AND IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE MILK IS SCALDED AND ADDED IN SMALL AMOUNTS TO THE BEATEN EGGS TO "TEMPER" THEM AND NOT MAKE SCRAMBLED EGGS.




4 cups milk..slowly  bring to high simmer
add 4 tbsp brown sugar and mix to dissolve.
Remove from heat

beat 4 large eggs with 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg  or cinnamon, in a large heatproof jug or bowl.
Add 1/2 cup scalded sweetened milk and whisk very well.
Add 2 cups rye whisky, bourbon, brandy, or rum.
Whisk well then add the rest of the hot milk..continue whisking well.

Pour into glasses and top with lightly whipped cream or ice cubes, and sprinkles of ground of nutmeg or cinnamon..this is wonderful!

For Lactose intolerant: use nut milk and double cream ( double cream has no lactose)

Enjoy.
