A chilled, creamy eggnog for sunny South African summers? ☀️ Yes, please! 😍
Made with Fair Cape Cream and Ecofresh Milk, 🥛 this cosy twist on the classic is perfect for festive get-togethers and warm December nights. ✨ Hit save and whip up something special this Christmas! 🎄
🥄 INGREDIENTS:
6 large egg yolks
125ml (1/2 cup) granulated sugar
250ml (1 cup) Fair Cape Cream
500ml (2 cups) Fair Cape Ecofresh Milk
2.5ml (1/2 tsp) ground nutmeg
1ml (1/4 tsp) vanilla extract
pinch of salt
Ground cinnamon, for topping
🧑‍🍳 METHOD:
1. Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a medium bowl until light and creamy.
2. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the cream, milk, nutmeg and salt. Stir often until mixture reaches a bare simmer.
3. Add a big spoonful of the hot milk to the egg mixture, whisking vigorously.
4. Repeat, adding a big spoonful at a time, to temper the eggs.
5. Once most of the hot milk has been added to the eggs, pour the mixture back into the saucepan on the stove.
6. Whisk constantly for a minute or so, until the mixture is just slightly thickened (or until it reaches about 70°C on a thermometer).
7. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla.
8. Pour the eggnog through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher or other container and cover with plastic wrap.
9. Refrigerate until chilled; it will thicken as it cools.
10. If you want a thinner, completely smooth consistency, you can add the entire mixture to a blender with 1 or 2 Tbsp of milk and blend until smooth.
11. Serve with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg, and fresh whipped cream, if desired.
12. Store homemade eggnog in the fridge for up to one week. ... See MoreSee Less
