Ingredients Low Carb Eggnog Cocktail
– Egg yolks: Eggs at rooms temperature. Separate the yolks from the egg whites.
– Heavy cream: Use full-fat heavy cream for best results.
– Coconut milk: You can also use almond milk, but coconut milk will make it richer and creamier.
– Sugar free sweetener: I used monk fruit sweetener, but you could also use stevia or any other sugar free sweetener.
– Nutmeg: I like to use Freshly grated nutmeg, but you could also use ground nutmeg.
– Cinnamon: Optional, but I love the flavor it adds to the eggnog.
– Vanilla extract: Use pure vanilla extract for best flavor.
– Rum: I like to use a good quality dark rum, but you could also use bourbon, brandy or your favorite spirit.
How To Make Low Carb Eggnog Cocktail
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar free sweetener until creamy.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream and coconut milk over medium heat until steaming.
- Slowly pour the hot cream into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
- Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat until thickened.
- Remove from heat and stir in the nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla extract and rum.
- Pour into glasses and enjoy!
Notes:
– This eggnog will thicken as it chills, so if you prefer a thinner consistency, simply add more heavy cream before serving.
– For a boozy version, feel free to add your favorite spirit. Rum, whiskey and brandy are all great choices.
– This eggnog can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days.
