HOLIDAY EGGNOG
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 quarts milk
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
2 cups heavy whipping cream
ground nutmeg
In heavy 4-quart saucepan, with wire whisk, beat eggs, sugar, and salt until blended. Gradually stir in 1 quart milk and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon well, about 25 minutes (mixture should be about 170 F to 175 F. but do not boil or it will curdle).Pour custard into large bowl; stir in vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and remaining milk. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled, about 3 hours.
well i guess its like an egg nog just latin style
its called coquito (how we puertoricans call it)
1/2 liter water
15 oz cream of coconut
12 oz evaporated milk
14 oz condensed milk
4 egg yolks
2 - 3 cinnamon sticks
1 liter white rum
Boil the cinnamon sticks in the water. Take the sticks out when the water is yellow and has the smell and taste of cinnamon.
Add the evaporated milk, condensed milk and egg yolks and cook at low temperature. While it's cooking stir to avoid it sticking to the bottom of the pot.
When it is boiling for a few minutes, add the cream of coconut and rum. Stir well and take off the burner.
Let it cool and it will be ready.
Keep it in the refrigerator and it will last for a very long time.
=) enjoy
Instead of egg nog, I would try a milk punch. They're just as yummy, but you don't have to worry about salmonella since they don't use eggs.
A couple to try:
Plantation milk punch:
3/4 cup half-and-half or light cream
2 teaspoons confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons brandy
1 pinch nutmeg (for garnish)
In a blender or cocktail shaker, combine half-and-half, sugar, vanilla, and brandy Blend or shake vigorously.
Pour into a glass packed with crushed ice.
Sprinkle with nutmeg (if desired).
Virginia's Milk Punch:
ice
3 ounces bourbon or brandy
4 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 dash almond extract
milk
Fill blender 2/3 full of ice.
Pour in 3 jiggers of bourbon or brandy.
Add 4 Tablespoons of sugar.
Add 2 teaspoons vanilla and a splash of almond.
Fill with milk until about 4/5 full.
(Leave enough room at top so it won't overflow.).
Blend until a smooth creamy consistency.
Pour into cups and enjoy!
