This homemade rich, sweetened and flavored non alcoholic eggnog is one that kids too can enjoy. If you prefer raw eggnog, avoid mixing the ingredients over heat.

Ingredients

3 large egg yolks

½ cup heavy whipping cream

Pinch of salt

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup milk

¼ teaspoon orange extract

¼ cup granulated sugar

 

Method

1.    Pour the egg yolk and sugar into a bowl and whisk until light and creamy.

5.    Remove from the heat and stir in the orange extract.

6.    Transfer the eggnog to a covered container.
