I’ve been posting on social media lately, raving about my homemade egg nog.
I made homemade egg nog. I put it in my tea, instead of milk. I put it on my Indian pudding (see previous post),…

This also became a short blog post: Add egg nog to everything!
Then, my inspired chai-spice egg nog made it to Instagram:
Just made a batch of #vanillabean, #chai-spiced #raw #eggnog. Sweet baby Jesus this one’s a winner. #realfood #primal #almostpaleo #drinks #rawmilk #raweggs
So, here’s the recipe!
Ingredients
- 6 farm-fresh eggs—literally farm-fresh eggs, not just eggs you buy in a store labelled Farm Fresh(TM). You will be consuming these eggs raw, so for me that means trusting where they come from.
- 3 cups raw milk—it doesn't have to be raw, but that is ideal! 🙂
- 1/4 cup natural sweetener of your choice—I like coconut palm sure or grade B maple syrup the best! Local raw honey is also great, and probably the best option, but if it's too gritty (like mine), it may not blend well.
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract—or 1-1/2 t vanilla bean powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
Instructions
- Put all ingredients in blender.
- Blend. ALL DONE!
Notes
Store in the fridge. Shake heartily before serving, as seasonings may settle, plus it's nice when it's frothy. Best served chilled. Optional: A dash of freshly-grated nutmeg on top.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. I did put a bit of rum in mine this evening just for…whatever, so I could sip on it while watching another episode of Poirot season 13. What fun.
Thanks for bringing this up and posting the perfect recipe…sans the booze…which is totally optional. 🙂
