Notes

  • There's no need to simmer the eggnog before serving it. However, simmering will deepen the flavors a bit.
  • If you simmer your eggnog, keep the heat low and not let it boil.
  • This drink makes four servings, but you can multiply it by as much as you'd like to serve more family and friends.
  • Store for up to 2 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
  • Reheat in a saucepan over medium heat.
