Gradually add 1 quart of milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
-
Cook and stir the mixture over low heat until a thermometer reads 160°F-170°F, which should take approximately 30-35 minutes.
-
Pour the cooked mixture into a large heatproof bowl. Stir in vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and the remaining milk until fully incorporated.
-
Place the bowl in an ice-water bath, stirring frequently until the mixture is cooled to room temperature. This step ensures a smooth and creamy texture.
-
If the mixture separates during cooling, process it in a blender until smooth consistency is achieved.
-
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the eggnog for at least 3 hours to chill and allow the flavors to meld together.
-
When ready to serve, beat the cream in a mixing bowl on high speed until soft peaks form. Gently whisk the whipped cream into the cooled eggnog mixture for added richness and creaminess.
-
Transfer the homemade eggnog into a chilled 5-quart punch bowl, creating a festive presentation.
-
Sprinkle the top of the eggnog with freshly grated nutmeg just before serving for a delightful finishing touch.
Enjoy the creamy and indulgent taste of homemade eggnog, a perfect beverage to celebrate the holiday season with family and friends! 🥛🎉
