NFT: What do you spike your egg nog with?

Ben in Tampa : 12/20/2014 10:27 am
It was decided amongst my extended family that we will be serving egg nog this Christmas Eve. I was put in charge. I have never held such responsibility and it will be the alcoholic variety of egg nog.

I have been advised a lot of different spirits to spike it with: brandy, burbon and rum. Anyone have any good recommendations?

But if you want to be a hero, I recommend my Christmas Rum Cream recipe...


Ingredients

1 can (14oz) sweetened condensed milk.
1 cup dark rum.
1 Cup heavy cream (or Half & Half)
2 Tbsp chocolate syrup.
4 Tsp instant coffee (or Fresh Brewed)
½ tsp ground cinnamon.
½ tsp vanilla extract.
¼ tsp coconut extract.

Combine all ingredients in a blender and whirl at high speed for a few
minutes until blended and smooth.

Serve over ice immediately or store in tightly covered container in refrigerator for up to two weeks.

1 batch makes 32oz. I usually make 4 and fill 2 beer growlers for Christmas Eve.

is what most people use, I prefer Crown Royal.
I tend to go with Bailey's Irish Cream

and tack on a little extra whiskey (some Jameson's does nicely) if it needs an extra kick. The Irish Cream sweetens and adds some depth to it (and you have to start with a good quality egg nog for it to work).

Not heavy duty, but nobody's drinking egg nog to get trashed.

That recipe sounds awesome. Not sure I want to put that effort in, but I'll consider it.
