Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lite full cream milk
  • 1 cup castor sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean split
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 10 egg yolks
  • 1 & 1/2 cups of brandy
  • And if you want to sprinkle fresh nutmeg or cinnamon to serve.

Instructions

  1. Place milk, sugar, vanilla bean & cinnamon sticks into a saucepan over a medium heat and constantly stirring for about 5 minutes or until it comes to a gentle boil.
  2. Then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Remove cinnamon sticks & vanilla bean and put aside.
  4. Then beat the egg yolks for 1 minute.
  5. Then add a small amount to milk mixture and whisk in ( don’t add in all at once it will cook the egg and end up scrambled up )
  6. Then when all yolk is added in, put it back on a low heat, constantly stirring till eggnog thickens and coats the back of a metal spoon.
  7. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  8. Then add the brandy.
  9. Pour into sterilised bottles refrigerate for 2 days to allow flavour to develop.
  10. Please note you many need a strainer & funnel so your eggnog as you are pouring into bottles, so it will be smooth and no extra bumps or lumps.
  11. I don’t think it takes that long for flavour to develop and plus I can’t wait to drink this and it is deadly.
  12. If you want non-alcoholic just don’t add the brandy ( my kids loves to try it before the brandy is put in).
