- 4 large eggs
- 100 ml cognac
- 75 ml dark rum
- 25 ml amaretto
- 100 ml Monin Pure Cane sugar syrup
- 500 ml milk
- 250 ml thick cream
Whisk the eggs and sugar syrup in a blender at top speed for 4 minutes, no more. (Make sure your blender can hold a litre before you start, otherwise make it in batches.) Add the milk, cream and booze then blend for a further minute. Pour into a jug and stick it in the fridge for a couple of hours until it’s really cold. Pour out into individual glasses and sprinkle nutmeg and cinnamon on top.
There are two cocktails that say Christmas like no others: Eggnog and Snowballs. Wait until it snows, pour out the eggnog, put Mr. Hankey’s Christmas Classics on the gramophone and empty Santa’s sack around the Christmas tree. Howdy Ho!
