If I want it without booze(...), do I just have to leave it out? Do I have to change the measurements of the other ingredients or are they still the same?

[tastemade]

You can just leave it out.

Do you have a collaboration video with the lads from Sorted Food? What's the title?

[tastemade]

Yes, Sorted Food are doing a whole show here on Tastemade called SortedFood @ The Table.

I made this today for a church potluck and it went over great. I didn't have any left over. Thanks for this, I'd never had real eggnog before.

[tastemade]

I'm french and for me eggnog is kind of a mistery so thanks to you I will be able to do it ;) Plus, it looks super yummy !!

I want to make this now.

[JESSICAinsideJAPAN]

Its hreat to put ice cream rather than all that whipped cream! :)

[Chemeleon15]

Buy pasteurized eggs(ex. the brand "Eggland's Best") or don't let the yolk or white touch the outside of the shell, where most of the salmonella(if any at all) is present.

[boardergirlsj]

Raw eggs? Pretty dangerous... What about salmonella?

[yinyi zeng]

My dad makes very good eggnog, but he adds run instead of Brandy.I don't care for Brandy much anyway.
