Does real eggnog contains any alcohol?!
Answers: I drink american Eggnog as a nutritional and non-alcoholic beverage, but sometimes I read somewhere Alcohol 1 gr. in 16 oz. How to explain it?
Real eggnog, meaning way back when did contain alcohol.
Hence the name eggnog...egg'n'grog, which over the years has been simpified to just eggnog.
Americans put rum in their eggnog while Europe used to put wine.
Over the years, we've become squeamish of the alcohol in eggnog, and now you can find variations with none at all.

eggnog does not have alcohol in it, only if you purchase the eggnog with alcohol.
possibly just a biproduct

I think you may be talking about Advokaat - an egg/cognac liqueur from the Netherlands you can buy where you buy your alcohol. That's what I call REAL eggnog.
An elderly German lady I know has always made a batch for Christmas time. If you'd like to make your own, here's how:
INGREDIENTS (Serves 4-8)
300 g sugar
25 g vanilla sugar
500 ml milk
9 egg yolks
350 ml 95% grain alcohol
PROCEDURE
(1) Mix sugars.
(2) Boil milk with half of sugars for two minutes. Let
it cool down. (For the milk it is easiest to use
a pot which can later be used with a mixer.)
(3) Mix well (mixer at high speed) the yolks with the
other half of the sugars.
(4) Using mixer add to milk. Then (still using mixer)
add alcohol slowly. (The result is quite fluid,
sweet and strong.)
(5) Bottle and let rest for two weeks to let the mix-
ture thicken.
NOTES
This advokaat can be drunk or, better yet, eaten with a
spoon: it is quite thick.
RATING
Difficulty: easy. Time: 5 minutes preparation, 2 weeks
aging. Precision: Measure the ingredients.
In the USA, eggnog at the supermarket does not have alcohol in it. You add your own.
When you say "real eggnog" are you referring to the homemade stuff? If you are then the answer depends on who is doing the drinking. Adults most often will include rum in the recipe. In colonial America the recipe called for eggs, milk, sugar and rum.
Eggnog that you buy at the supermarket does not contain alcohol. It is better if you add the alcohol in before you drink it.
