🎁 Recipe 🎁

1. Prepare the Base

🍶 In a saucepan, combine 500 ml of milk, 250 ml of heavy cream, and ½ tsp freshly grated nutmeg.
🔥 Heat gently over medium heat until it’s steamy but not boiling (around 70°C). Stir occasionally.

2. Whisk Egg Yolks and Sugar

🍳 In a mixing bowl, whisk 4 egg yolks with 100 grams of sugar until smooth, pale, and creamy.

3. Temper the Eggs

🌀 Slowly ladle the warm milk into the yolk mixture while whisking constantly to avoid curdling.
🍶 Once combined, pour everything back into the saucepan.

4. Cook the Eggnog

🔥 Heat the mixture on low, stirring constantly, until it thickens (about 80°C).
🧪 Test with a spoon: if it coats the back and holds a line when wiped, it’s done!

5. Add Flavor and Customize

🌼 Remove from heat and stir in 1 tsp of vanilla extract.
🥃 For alcohol: Add 135 ml, 200 ml, or 400 ml of bourbon/whiskey for low, medium, or high alcohol, respectively.
🌟 For non-alcoholic: Add 20 ml of rum substitute or aroma.
❄️ Chill the eggnog in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours.

6. Prepare the Topping

🍳 Whisk 4 egg whites until frothy, then gradually add 100 grams of sugar and ½ tsp vanilla extract.
🎨 Continue whisking until soft peaks form, then transfer the whipped whites to a piping bag for easy serving.

7. Serve

🍷 Pour the chilled eggnog into glasses, top with the whipped egg whites, and torch lightly for a caramelized finish.
✨ Sprinkle a touch of nutmeg for garnish.
