4. Home made eggnog

It’s been a family recipe since my Grandfather learned it from his Mother inthe early 1900’s . My Grandfsther made it, the my Dad made it, my older sister and now I make it at Xmas. Last year I spent Xmas at my husband’s family in Arizona. And I made the eggnog. I was shocked there was none left over for my coffee the next day. The grandkid’s in their 20’s - 40’s years old had never had homemade eggnog only the store brought kind and loved it. I put sugar in it but not a lot ! I was back there for Thanksgiving this year and I made it again for them. This Saturday I went to a ladies lunch and made it but half the attendees were vegetarians who don’t drink milk. So my husband is happily enjoyed my eggnog with some brandy in it last night and myself in some of my morning coffee!
