<DIV>I'd reject the "everyone's up in arms about the dangers of raw eggs" stuff, but that recipe had better be served with a complementary angioplasty.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here's a healthier version:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Light Egg Nog<BR><BR>4 cups skim milk<BR>12 oz. can evaporated milk (or evaporated skim milk)<BR>8 oz frozen egg product thawed (or egg whites)<BR>1/2 cup sugar<BR>1/3 cup light rum<BR>1 tsp vanilla<BR>skim milk<BR>ground nutmeg<BR>cinnamon sticks<BR><BR>Cook and stir skim milk, evaporated milk, egg product and sugar in saucepan over medium heat for about 10 minutes or till slightly thickened. Do not boil! Place pan over a bowl of ice water, stir mixture 2 minutes. Cover and chill 4 to 24 hours. Stir in rum and vanilla. Stir in additional skim milk until desired thickness. Sprinkle each serving with ground nutmeg. Serve with cinnamon stick stirrers.<BR><BR>Makes 12 servings. There are only 99 calories and 1 gram of fat in each serving.<BR></DIV>

<DIV>Modernly, Stefan, there are recipes for both cooked egg nogs (come out rather like a very thin custard) and uncooked egg nogs (come out rather like a melted milk shake). I made both, this past winter, depending on my mood. Cooked tends to be the most popular, for home made, because everyone's up in arms about the dangers of raw eggs, however I've never had a problem, and thanks to the girls, rather doubt I wll. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Here's a couple more or less standard recipes. I prefer brandy for my alcohol, but most of the brown liquors work bourbon, Canadian, rum, but NOT Scotch:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
<P>Cooked Eggnog</P>
<P>Ingredients</P>
<P>3 eggs<BR>2 Tbs sugar<BR>pinch of salt<BR>1 1/12 cups milk<BR>1/2 tsp vanilla<BR>Preparation</P>
<P>Start by... adding all the ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth (about 8 seconds).<BR>Then... Pour into a sauce pan and over low heat, warm the mixture making sure to stir it constantly.<BR>When... the mixture has thickened remove it from heat. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled. </P>
<P>This recipe serves 2, double or triple the ingredients for more servings.<BR></P>
<P>Add a shot of rum and a sprinkle of nutmeg to each serving for a classic holiday cocktail.</P>
<P> <BR>Uncooked Eggnog</P>
<P>A super rich eggnog with cream and milk, with a bit of a kick from brandy and rum.</P>
<P>INGREDIENTS:</P>
<P> * 6 eggs<BR> * 1 cup sugar<BR> * 1/2 tsp vanilla<BR> * 1/4 tsp nutmeg<BR> * 2 cups milk<BR> * 2 cups heavy whipping cream<BR> * 3/4 cup brandy<BR> * 1/3 cup dark rum </P>
<P>PREPARATION:<BR>Chill everything before starting, for best results. Beat eggs until frothy, then beat in sugar, vanilla and nutmeg. Slowly stir in brandy, rum, cream and milk. Chill again, and serve eggnog cold.<BR></P></DIV>
