INGREDIENTS
Alcohol
- 1 cup brandy
- ½ cup sherry wine
- ½ cup Jamaican rum
- ½ cup whiskey
Dairy
- 🥛 1 quart whole milk
- 🥛 1 quart heavy cream
- 🍦 1 quart vanilla ice cream, for serving
Eggs
- 🥚 12 eggs, separated
Spices
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated nutmeg, for garnish
STEPS
Add brandy, sherry, rum, and whiskey to a bowl.
Place egg yolks and egg whites into two separate, large mixing bowls. Beat egg yolks until light and frothy; gradually beat in sugar until light colored. Slowly beat in brandy mixture. Add milk and heavy cream until blended.
Using a clean beater, beat egg whites until soft peaks form; gently fold into milk mixture.
Pour eggnog into two clean gallon-size milk containers. Refrigerate for at least 5 days (10 days for smoother taste). Shake occasionally to prevent alcohol separation.
Serve eggnog in a punch bowl; whisk to blend. Add vanilla ice cream and garnish with nutmeg.
