In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until smooth and pale yellow in color.
In a large saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium heat until it begins to steam, but do not let it boil.
Gradually whisk the heated milk into the egg mixture, adding a little at a time to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.
Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for about 2 hours or until well chilled.
Once chilled, transfer the mixture to a large serving bowl or pitcher. Stir in the Southern Comfort until fully incorporated.
Serve in glasses, topping each with a dollop of whipped cream. Optionally, garnish with a cinnamon stick for a festive touch.
