Eggnog with Spices and Rum

My brother in law Peter is a quiet, very laid back research scientist. 363 days of the year he is a strict vegetarian, who hardly ever touches alcohol, let alone massive amounts of eggs and cream! However on Christmas day and New Years eve, he has been known to ask me for this eggnog and being the terrific guy that he is, I never refuse to make it for him!It's simply known in our family as Peter's eggnog and it's delicious! It's so easy to make and it's even better when served in a punchbowl surrounded by spicy yuletide greenery! You can make the recipe from scratch if you desire, but frankly when the good organic eggnogs are so plentiful why bother (and you have the added bonus of not having to worry about raw eggs!)! Also, if you have anyone in your family who is allergic to milk, don't forget about Silk's soy eggnog or SoyNog as I believe it's called! It's delicious and if you omit the whipped cream you will have a delicious and festive holiday beverage with no one feeling left out!

All you will need is :

3 quarts of organic eggnog Please splurge on the organic, you won't be sorry!

About 2 cups of really good rum! I personally love the Captain Morgan's special reserve spiced rum for this recipe. It's already infused with spices and vanilla....practically perfume! ( And I have been known to use it as such!)

Lots of creme chantilly ,aka whipped cream that has been infused with vanilla extract, simple sugar syrup and some rum flavoring.

A liberal sprinkling of ,

Nutmeg for joy and good luck, Cinnamon for love and prosperity and Allspice for good health throughout the year!

The recipe itself is quite easy, simply put the eggnog into a punch bowl and whisk in the rum. Ladle the creme chantilly onto the eggnog so that it looks like fluffy clouds of cream, sprinkle with the spices and serve. You will need to add more cream on top as the evening unfolds because the creme chantilly gets folded into the eggnog, making it AMAZING! Serve in a lovely punch glass or a pretty tea cup with a kiss and a wish for a marvelous New Year!
