Chris created this Egg Nog recipe for a restaurant where he was working three years ago – and has been talking about it ever since. Somehow, in the years since then, I never got the chance to give it a try.
So when we were chatting about our favorite Cream cocktails while recording this Wednesday’s Podcast, I made Chris promise to finally make his famous Egg Nog this year. I have to admit – it’s just as good as the stories! It’s very rich but not overpoweringly sweet. He uses quite a bit of milk to reduce the thickness and make it more drinkable, and I think he’s found just the right balance.

Yes, it does taste as amazing as it looks. If you have fresh nutmeg available, definitely don’t skip the freshly grated nutmeg garnish – it adds an incredible aroma that’s worth the extra step.
