Homemade Eggnog...

This recipe is a quick, easy way to make up a quick batch of eggnog. It seems to get better with age, so I would make it a week before you plan to drink it, if you have the self-control to wait that long!! I also used raw eggs in this recipe. I bought my eggs fresh from my local organic egg farmer and washed each egg off before use. I know there is always a small risk in using raw eggs, but I have been eating eggs raw for the past few years with no problems...

6 organic eggs (preferably fresh from a local farmer)
1 cup rapadura or sucanat
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp nutmeg
2 cups organic milk
2 cups organic cream
3/4 cup brandy
1/3 cup rum

Beat the eggs until fluffy, then add the sugar, vanilla, and nutmeg. Stir in the remaining ingredients and store in the fridge.

Enjoy with some warm Christmas cookies and a good movie!! Cheers!
