The classic holiday drink—Eggnog—can be made a number of different ways using brandy, rum, whisky, bourbon, or vodka. Here we’ll be using bourbon.

Ingredients:

• 4 egg yolks
• 1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
• 1 pint whole milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 3 ounces bourbon
• 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 4 egg whites

Method:

• Beat egg yolks until they turn pale yellow.
• Add 1/3 cup of sugar and beat until it is completely dissolved.
• Add milk, cream, bourbon, and nutmeg. Stir to combine.
• Beat egg whites to form soft peaks, add 1 tablespoon of sugar, and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
• Whisk egg whites into milk mixture. Chill and serve.
