How to Make Southerner's Specialty Eggnog
- In a large bowl, whisk 6 large egg yolks until pale yellow and thick (about 2-3 minutes).
- Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar, whisking constantly until the mixture is thick and pale (about 2 minutes).
- Slowly pour in 2 cups heavy cream, whisking continuously until fully incorporated.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 cup of your preferred alcohol (Cognac, Rum, or Jack Daniels).
- Whisk until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat 6 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
- Strain the eggnog through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove any lumps.
- Chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Garnish with extra nutmeg before serving.
