Serving Size

Equipment

These include a blender for mixing everything smoothly.
It’s important to have a mixing bowl too. Also, a whisk will help in blending the ingredients well.
For measuring, I use measuring cups and spoons.
Finally, grab a pitcher to serve our delicious eggnog.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make the mocktail:

3 cups milk use any kind you like
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup sugar
4 egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp ground cinnamon

These ingredients create a rich and creamy mocktail. And, don’t forget the nutmeg and cinnamon for that special holiday flavor. 😊

Instructions

Let’s get started!

First, in a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is smooth.
In a saucepan, heat the milk and cream until it’s steaming, but not boiling.
Slowly pour the hot milk mixture into the bowl with the egg yolks, whisking constantly. This step prevents the eggs from cooking too quickly.
Pour this blend back into the saucepan and heat gently until it thickens.
Add the vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon, then stir well.
Finally, refrigerate until it’s cold, then serve in glasses with a sprinkle of nutmeg. Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe can be made ahead by a day. Just refrigerate and serve when you’re ready. If you want a lighter version, you can swap out heavy cream for whole milk.

Tasting Notes

I love the rich and creamy texture of this non-alcoholic eggnog mocktail. 🥛 It’s like a hug in a mug with its silky smoothness and warming spices. From the very first sip, I’m reminded of cozy winter nights by the fireplace.

The flavor is a delightful blend of vanilla and spices. Nutmeg and cinnamon add that extra festive touch, making it taste just like the holidays in a glass. ✨ It’s both sweet and spicy, without being overwhelming.

Here are some of my favorite highlights:

Creaminess: Thick and smooth, making each sip satisfying.
Flavor: Sweet with hints of vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
Aftertaste: Leaves a gentle warmth on your palate.

I often notice how the sweetness is perfectly balanced. It’s just right—not too sugary. The blend of spices complements the sweetness, creating a harmonious flavor. 🌟

I can’t help but smile when I take a sip. It’s such a treat to enjoy during the colder months. Have you tried a non-alcoholic eggnog before? Let me know your thoughts below! 👇

Substitute

Looking for a way to boost your non-alcoholic eggnog mocktail? I’ve got you covered! Sometimes the usual ingredients don’t quite fit the bill, and that’s where substitutes come in. 🤗

Here are some easy swaps:

Milk Alternatives: Instead of regular milk, try almond, oat, or coconut milk. These bring their own flavor twist and make the drink enjoyable for those avoiding dairy. 🥛
Sweeteners: If you want to cut back on sugar, go for natural options like honey or maple syrup. They add a touch of sweetness without being too overpowering. 🍯
Flavors: Vanilla extract is wonderful, but don’t stop there! Experiment with almond extract or even a sprinkle of nutmeg and cinnamon for more depth. 🌿
Vegan Friendly: For a vegan vibe, replace eggs with silken tofu or banana puree. These keep the creamy texture without eggs. 🍌

Try these substitutes, and let me know how your unique eggnog turns out. I love hearing your creative ideas, so drop them in the comments! 💬

Tips & Tricks

Making non-alcoholic eggnog mocktail at home can be fun! Here are my favorite tips to make it extra special. 🌟

Choose fresh eggs for the best taste. Fresh eggs make the eggnog creamy and rich.
Chill your ingredients before you start. This helps to keep the eggnog cold without too much ice. ❄️
I like to mix spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. This creates a warm, comforting flavor. You can adjust them to your taste.
Use a blender to make the mixing easy. It helps create a smooth, frothy texture. If you don’t have one, a whisk works too! 👩‍🍳
Adjust sweetness to your preference. Start with less sugar and add more if needed. Agave or honey can be great alternatives.
For a thicker texture, try adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This makes the drink deliciously creamy.
Garnish with a sprinkle of nutmeg or a cinnamon stick for a nice touch. It adds flavor and looks inviting. 🎉
