Background: No Christmas celebration is complete without Alton Brown’s Eggnog recipe. This is our favorite holiday tradition and Mr. Brown has perfected eggnog into a creamy, sinfully delicious holiday treat.
- 4 egg yokes
- 1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
- 1 pint whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 ounces Angel’s Envy Bourbon
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 4 egg whites
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the egg yolks until they lighten in color. Gradually add the 1/3 cup sugar and continue to beat until it is completely dissolved. Add the milk, cream, bourbon, and nutmeg and stir to combine.
- Beat the egg whites until soft peaks. Slow mixer speed and gradually add the 1 tablespoon of sugar. Increase mixer speed and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Whisk the egg whites into the mixture. Chill. Serve in teacups or small glasses, garnish with a sprinkle of more freshly grated nutmeg.
