TASTING EGGNOG FOR THE FIRST TIME / Making Winter Christmas Festive Drinks at home | Ciara O Doherty

In todays episode of Cocktails with Ciara, I'm making and tasting EGGNOG for the very first time! I was super nervous about making this drink for the first time, and a huge thank you to my lovely Patreon supporter Shelley for giving me her Grandmother Renee's traditional family recipe to try to recreate... but did I actually manage to do it properly?

✨ Ingredients to serve 8 people ✨
1 cup of heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 cups of sugar, divided
1 dozen eggs, separated
1-2 tablespoons high quality pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup Crown Royal Select Canadian Whiskey or any smooth bourbon whiskey

✨ Method ✨
- Place cream into a medium bowl and whip with electric mixer, adding 1/2 cup of sugar after the cream starts thickening. Whip until thick. Set bowl aside.
- Separate 1 dozen eggs. Save all of the egg whites to be whipped later. Put 6 egg yolks into a medium bowl. Beat the egg yolks with the mixer adding 1/4 cup of sugar. Continue beating yolks until they change to a lemon color.
- Add vanilla and mix well.
- In a large bowl, beat egg whites with mixer until foamy. Add 3/4 cup sugar and beat until the egg whites form stiff peaks. Gently stir in by hand the beaten egg yolks until incorporated, making sure not to deflate the egg whites.
- Gently stir in half of the whipped cream, then fold in the rest of the whipped cream until well mixed.
- Serve as is, or add more whiskey to taste.
