This eggnog is spiced “just right” and it’s healing diet approved…..there’s no sugar in it and it still tastes great. You’ll be wanting glass after glass of this creamy concoction. I know my kids sure love it!

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon NuNaturals NuStevia™ White Stevia™ Powder
  • 1/4 (slightly rounded) teaspoon salt
  • 5 cups raw whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cups raw cream (or organic heavy cream, not ultra-pasteurized), or you may omit and use all milk for a slightly less creamy eggnog
  • dash (1/8 tsp.) cinnamon
  • dash (1/8 tsp.) nutmeg, plus more for sprinkling each serving
  • pinch (1/16 tsp.) ground cloves
  • 2 Tablespoons vanilla extract

In large heavy saucepan, with a wire whisk combine the eggs, stevia, and salt until blended. Add 2 cups of the milk and whisk in to combine. Cook over low to medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 25 minutes). Mixture should reach 160 degrees, don’t let it boil, or it will curdle.

Whisk in the spices and vanilla extract. Pour mixture into a large container of your choice (big enough to hold 1/2 gallon). Stir in remaining milk (3 cups), and 1 1/2 cups cream. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours, or until well-chilled, before serving.

To serve, pour eggnog into glasses and sprinkle with ground nutmeg.

Makes 1/2-gallon (2-quarts).
