It’s taken me several years to perfect this recipe. Now everyone asks, ‘When are you making the eggnog?!’ This uses cooked eggs for safety, and you can use more or less rum to taste. It’s a bit of work to make, but well worth it. You’ll never buy store-bought eggnog again! Enjoy!

These are some of the reviews from people who tried the Amazingly Good Eggnog Recipe :
Martha :
Excellent! This will definitely become a holiday tradition! You can use up to half the rum and still have the flavor of it without getting toasted. But depending on how hectic your holidays are, you might want to add the whole amount… and then some! I suggest adding the rum to taste.
Fiona :
This is fantastic eggnog! We served it new years eve and it was gone in the first hour. I served rum and brandy on the side for our guests to spike themselves instead of mixing it in.

- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 1/2 cups light rum
- 4 cups light cream

- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions :
