Indulgent old-fashioned eggnog with bourbon, rum, and brandy, topped with a sprinkle of nutmeg.
Ingredients:
  • 12 eggs, separated
  • 4.5 cups white sugar

  • 1.5 cups brandy

Instructions:
  • In a spacious bowl, vigorously whisk together the eggs and sugar until the mixture is thick and pale. Gently fold in the bourbon and rum until the sugar is fully dissolved. Allow the mixture to sit for approximately 1 hour.
