How to Make Alcohol Free Basic Eggnog

  1. Separate 6 large eggs at room temperature.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the 6 egg yolks with ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar until pale and creamy (about 5 minutes using an electric mixer).
  3. In a separate clean bowl, beat the 6 egg whites with ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar until stiff, glossy peaks form (about 5-7 minutes using an electric mixer).
  4. In another bowl, beat 2 cups (475ml) heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture, then carefully fold in the beaten egg whites until just combined. Be sure not to deflate the mixture.
  6. Add 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract to taste.
  7. Transfer the eggnog to a covered container and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for the best taste!
  8. Before serving, pour the eggnog into a serving bowl. Sprinkle generously with freshly grated nutmeg.
