I used to hate the stuff til I met an old boyfriend's 84 year old dutch foster mom who had the BEST recipe. I only make it at the holidays because it is so smooth it's too easy to overindulge.

Mammy's Eggnog

6 large or 8 small separated eggs
2 cups sugar
1 gal milk
1/2 fifth brandy
1/2 fifth rum
dash whiskey
nutmeg to taste
2 large mixing bowls

The recipe calls for mixing the sugar and yolks together, but we found that it clumps, so mix the yolks and dash of whiskey together and add sugar.
Add milk, then rum and brandy.
Beat the egg whites until light and fluffy.
Fold into the milk mixture, bottle (you need two milk jugs), shake and add nutmeg.
Enjoy!
