Easy Homemade Eggnog!

Hey everyone!
Today we're making one of my favorite things during the holiday season, and that is eggnog. This recipe is so creamy, weirdly light (for an eggnog) and perfectly sweet, it's miles ahead of the store bought kind, at least in my opinion. Its so much easier to make than you think to, here's the recipe below: Ingredients for about 6 servings:

For the base:
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup white sugar
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
cook to 170-180 F. , then add;
1/4 cup bourbon whiskey, 1/4 cup cognac, 1/4 cup spiced rum
1 teaspoon freshly grated or dried nutmeg

For the meringue:
4 egg whites
1 tablespoon white sugar (I omitted due to the sweeter cognac)

I chilled my eggnog quickly by pouring the custard mixture into tightly sealed containers, and then putting it into a cold water bath. If you have the time, it's easier and better to let the custard just chill for the day and mix the egg whites in the following day!

Also! Sorry this came out so late. Due to technical problems *cough cough* Big Sur Update *cough* it's a few days past due!
