Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 ml Full-fat coconut milk
- 250 ml Unsweetened almond milk
- 120 ml Coconut cream
- 60 ml Maple syrup
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 tsp Ground cloves
- 1 pinch Salt
- 60 ml Dark rum (optional)
- 2 pieces Cinnamon sticks or grated nutmeg (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine coconut milk, almond milk, and coconut cream. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is warmed but not boiling.
Whisk in maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and a pinch of salt. Continue to stir until all the spices are evenly distributed and the mixture is smooth.
Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer gently for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.
Remove the saucepan from heat. For an extra creamy texture, use an immersion blender to blend the mixture for 1–2 minutes, or transfer it to a standing blender and blend until frothy.
If desired, stir in dark rum for a spiked version of the drink.
Pour the eggnog into serving glasses or mugs. Garnish with a cinnamon stick or a light dusting of grated nutmeg for an added festive touch.
Serve warm immediately, or refrigerate until chilled if you’d prefer a cold version. Stir before serving as separation may occur.
