Christmas Eggnog (from United Kingdom)

 Eggnog is a drink with a long history. It has been loved as a festive beverage in England for many centuries, but its form has changed considerably from the original. Modern eggnog forever includes some traditional ingredients —eggs, certainly, and lots of sugar—and sometimes incorporates relatively fresh ones like ice cream.

enggnog ex :














PREPARE:20 minutes
SERVES:10
Ingredients:6 eggs, separated
8 tbsp. sugar
1 cup (1/2 pint) heavy or whipping cream 6 1/2 cups whole milk
1/4 cup brandy or more (optional)
1 qt. vanilla ice cream
freshly grated nutmeg (optional)

Tips :
1. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks until smooth. Add 6 tbsp. of the sugar, the cream, 6 cups of the milk, and (if you're using it) the brandy and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour, until chilled.
2. Before serving, in a small bowl beat the egg whites until frothy. Then add the remaining 2 tbsp. sugar and 1/2 cup milk and stir just until blended.
3. Remove the egg yolk mixture from the refrigerator. Add the egg white mixture and stir just until blended. Add the ice cream. It's your choice whether to leave the ice cream in one large block or to break it up into individual scoops. Sprinkle nutmeg on top (if desired) and serve, using a ladle to fill individual mugs. Th
e ice cream will gradually melt in the mugs, adding a delectable consistency and underlying smooth flavor. You, your family, and friends will never settle for commercial eggnog again.
