Thumbs up for not cooking it! I make fourteen quarts every third week of October and let the batch 'age' for at least a month in a 20 quart pot in the fridge before bottling in quart sized Libbey milk bottles. Then, I serve it up at Thanksgiving & Christmas. I usually keep a quart or two to have alongside the following year's batch in order to gauge the difference in taste since I like to change up the alcohol's I use. After ten years of making eggnog, no one has ever taken ill after having a year-old nog (stored in the fridge, of course)! Last year I used Woodford Reserve Bourbon, Martell VSOP Cognac, & regular Chairman's Reserve Rum. This year, I will be using Kirkland Bottled In Bond Bourbon (by the house of Barton 1792), Martell Blue Swift Cognac, & Chairman's Reserve Spiced Rum. Thanks for showing your version!!
Love eggnog and made the base recipe last year. Trying the Anejo/Sherry version this year. Love the comment about the concept of a cold Christmas being unfamiliar (made me think about how Christmas experiences vary so much based on where you are on the globe). Hope you have a Merry Christmas STB!
I live in NY so Christmas is usually quite chilly but I still like my egg nog cold. These recipes are wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! ❤️🎄⭐🎅⭐🎄❤️
Steve, thanks so much for sharing this recipe. I've never had "real" eggnog, until now. This will become a annual tradition at our house going forward. Truly, one of the best surprises of the holiday season. Merry Christmas and Happy New year. Mad respect for all that you have shared with us fans. Peace....
Your technique is much less messy than mine… This makes me feel woefully inadequate 😂🤣 Definitely going to give both a try! Cheers, and happy holidays!!
Thanks for the recipes and links to scale up the yields. I enjoy the channel and the cocktail ideas and techniques. Being from New England eggnog is a Christmas staple. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
Thanks for these delicious eggnog recipes, thanks for all of these great videos you upload and I wish you and your other half a very Happy Christmas and a very Happy and healthy New Year ahead!
I'd say it's weird to me that you have Christmas during summer too but I live in Florida which is the southern part of the US and it diesnt get cold here and never snows (never being once every 20 years we might get a few snowflakes but not even enough to make a single snowball) Happy Holidays to you, Kat and the puppy.
Merry Christmas Steve! Christmas eve (today) is the biggest day of Christmas here in Finland and I'm going to celebrate it with my wife and the eggnog you made last year!
I have not traditionally enjoyed eggnog but these two choices look delicious and amazing!! I think I definitely have to make both and compare!! This is such a fabulous video right before Christmas! Thanks so much Steve!! Merry Christmas! I hope it is full of fun and happiness!! Cheers!! :-)
We follow a recipe for aged eggnog so we make a batch to drink immediately (hot or cold, hot is custard style) and then we age the second batch for up to two years, it is noticeably different but delicious (Wisconsin, USA). I recommend it all, but I grew up with it as a tradition as well. Thank you for showing the tequila version, that looks interesting. Merry Christmas.
I love Morganthaler's nog been making it for years now cant stand store bought anymore. Fukin hell Tinny! ....awesome.....Merry Christmas Steve to you and yours
Nice! This year, I did a Creme de Banane' and Coffee Liqueur version with Dr. Bird, Casamigos Repo, Mr. Black, and Tempus Fugit with a splash of Amontillado Sherry.
I was making batch cocktails for a family gathering, and I decided to add the base recipe version of the eggnog in this video. The two changes that I made were that I used a pasteurized egg product because I don't like to use raw eggs, and I substituted Captain Morgan 100 Proof for the Sailor Jerry's, because I thought the more in-your-face flavor profile of the Captain Morgan would stand out well in eggnog. (But Sailor Jerry's is a great product, and it's usually my go-to spiced rum.) The results were super, and, even though I was told "no eggnog," there wasn't much left of the 900 ml I made by increasing the recipe in the show notes by one half. I think more eggnog was drunk than anything else I brought.
@@StevetheBartender_ Thanks for asking. The other cocktails were a whiskey sour enhanced with a little honey whiskey and bitters (ginger and Angostura), an espresso martini, a Royal Bermuda Yacht Club daiquiri, and a rum punch.
This sounds so good bro! And you make it look easy as! Lol always wanted to try this! Might make the rum version! Good old Teddy putting his 2 cents in 🤣
Are we getting a Teddy Mic before a Wife Mic? :D Happy Holidays!!! You know you could make eggnog ice-cream (or milk shake) for the warmer days you have.
Next year you should make a Puerto Rican Egg Nog, Coquito. My buddy introduced me to this is Germany and whohoo this with make you sing on top of a phone booth! (Yes, actually happened)
You can use light cream instead of mixing the milk and heavy cream. Or for slightly less fat 1/2 & 1/2. Instead of having to keep multiple milk products.
If that's what you prefer, sure... but it isn't that hard to keep milk and cream on hand. Half and half by the carton isn't readily available in stores for that reason.
There are so many sub par cocktail sets available... Top Shelf Bar Supply have a good range: amzn.to/3eET88d and Pina Barware are very good quality but I don't think they have a package - you'll need to purchase each item individually: amzn.to/3HbSFGF Or, if you are in Australia, I own www.cocktailkit.com.au and can highly recommend the sets I put together ;)
@@StevetheBartender_ unfortunately, I'm from the states. But I'll make sure to support the channel through other ways!!! Thank you Steve for the info!! And Merry Christmas :D
I know, you are going with the bartenders and their versions of a good or great eggnog. If you want a true, amazingly good eggnog, please take a look at Chef John at Food wishes. You will not be disappointed.
The risk of salmonella does exist. If you want to be extra careful, you can use pasteurized eggs, or pasteurize your own. (there are instructions for low-temp home pasteurization online)
I appreciate your metric conversions. But we don't ml of powdered sugar. It's by grams. Please do everything by weight if you want everyone around the world to appreciate your recipes. We don't care if it's in ounces because we can convert it. Don't do volumes in cooking.
I was using Jeffrey Morgenthaler's recipe and I assume he called for 90ml is because if you are making drinks, you will have a jigger on hand... so it's easy to do. I ordinarily wouldn't measure sugar by volume.
I used bourbon in last year's eggnog recipe... th-cam.com/video/1bqt9mvwGJ0/w-d-xo.html ...and the nutmeg can be seen in B roll at 0:40 and later in the video at 5:30... lol, you mustn't have been paying attention ;)

I’m glad that was heavy cream - I thought initially it was mayonnaise!
Lol, sounds like an interesting video idea... mayonnaise nog!
Never made my own but looks amazing. Love eggnog. Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas Steve! Christmas eve (today) is the biggest day of Christmas here in Finland and I'm going to celebrate it with my wife and the eggnog you made last year!
How did your eggnog go? My wife is German so she celebrates XMAS on the eve too!
@@StevetheBartender_ It was way too boozy for me! Or maybe I just don't like bourbon...
I love a good eggnog and those are both great. Merry Christmas Steve!!!
Happy holidays mate! 🎄
Tip. Use the spirits to marinate some sultanas or mixed dried fruits for an hour or two. Then strain out the dried fruits and use the spirits.
I have not traditionally enjoyed eggnog but these two choices look delicious and amazing!! I think I definitely have to make both and compare!! This is such a fabulous video right before Christmas! Thanks so much Steve!! Merry Christmas! I hope it is full of fun and happiness!! Cheers!! :-)

Christmas finna be awesome my family
Hi Steve, enjoy your videos. I've got an heirloom recipe from my grandmother that DOESN'T use heavy cream! I make it with bourbon and it is delish!
Looks and sounds so much better than the Darigold pre-made eggnog we get in the stores around our locale!
I cant say I've ever tried or even seen a pre made nog here in Australia!
Pre made eggnog is disgusting.
Here in Orlando, it's TG Lee ("Florida's Hometown Diary"), made with half 'n half and high fructose corn syrup. Steve, you're not missing a thing!
Sad to say Morganthaler's bar Clyde Common closed recently, which is sad. Not sure what his current gig is, just being awesome I guess.
Oh really? Damn that sucks...!
I love Morganthaler's nog been making it for years now cant stand store bought anymore.
Fukin hell Tinny! ....awesome.....Merry Christmas Steve to you and yours
Merry Christmas to you too! I wish I discovered his recipe a long time ago...
p.s. his name is Teddy :)
Hey bro - you’re getting closer to 1 million subscribers. I know you can do this 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼. Stay safe, merry Christmas and a happy new year ❤️
Still a way to go before 1 million! Have a great Xmas too! 🎉🎉🎉
Aww give Teddy some nog, it's Xmas!
Just made the brandy spiced rum version. It's a winner. Cheers
Nice work - glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. No shake-smile to be had but 7:50 is pretty good. Merry Christmas all!
Thanks for the two recipes.
I really like this, I added 2 Oz. of kahlua ans 2oz of spiced rum. it's very good.

@@StevetheBartender_ Thanks for asking. The other cocktails were a whiskey sour enhanced with a little honey whiskey and bitters (ginger and Angostura), an espresso martini, a Royal Bermuda Yacht Club daiquiri, and a rum punch.
@@bob___ sounds like an epic family gathering!!
This sounds so good bro! And you make it look easy as! Lol always wanted to try this! Might make the rum version!
Good old Teddy putting his 2 cents in 🤣
Bring in Australia I’ve never been a big nog person… but seriously worth a try and this version makes it hella easy with no heat.. give it a shot 👍
Definitely will man! 😍😍
Love homemade egg nog. I want to try both of these!!! Happy Holidays Steve and Kat.
Nog is definitely growing on me.. please try them! Hope my you both have an epic XMAS!!
Looks tasty Steve, I drink my eggnog with J D Shore rum cream this year 😁, Merry Christmas to you and your wife 👊
Happy holidays!
Rattling spoons and rustling wrappers, exactly the same as my missus lmao! 😂😂
She always looks shocked when I empty her bag of crisps onto a plate while we're trying to watch a movie 🍻😂
Haha, this time it was the dog!
Oh good grief, imagine if she sees this now, we do normally watch your vids together but this one may have to go MIA 😂
Thank you so much for this lovely comparison! They look absolutely amazing.
Happy holidays sir 🥃🍻
Happy holidays Chris!! 🎉
Are we getting a Teddy Mic before a Wife Mic? :D Happy Holidays!!! You know you could make eggnog ice-cream (or milk shake) for the warmer days you have.
Haha, Teddy mic would be incredibly distracting! ...we're holding off on Kat cam for a while...
@@StevetheBartender_ are you saying Teddy has a better shake smile than you? 😉
He just doesn't know when to keep quiet.. and he's pretty damn cute, he'd steal the show!
From PDX, thanks for the pointer to Clydes! Historically eggnog was a year around thing during the colonial days …
Make both and mix them..best of both worlds!
never tried an eggnog, thanks for the recipe, that will be my first
Best eggnog recipe I ever had.
Yeah, it's a solid recipe hey!! My favourite by far..
If you want to batch these will they store in the fridge indefinitely?
Not indefinitely as they contain raw egg.
Next year you should make a Puerto Rican Egg Nog, Coquito. My buddy introduced me to this is Germany and whohoo this with make you sing on top of a phone booth! (Yes, actually happened)
Thank U Steve.
Most welcome!

Do you use just the yolks?

@@StevetheBartender_ I don't drink milk but I do use light & heavy cream. Always trying to streamline where I can. Got to much stuff in the fridge. 😂
You should try Puerto Rican coquito which is like a eggnog.
I have :)
Salt! A pinch of salt is mandatory for any eggnog (as with any dessert), just trust.
I'll give it a go next time I batch some..
Yall, are there any Amazon cocktail mixer sets you recommend? I've seen the top rated ones but wanted your opinion

A tradition on my home. Homemade only
Have you ever made Coquito on the channel?
I have made it before but can't seem to find a video on it... maybe I didn't film it..
I bet Mr. Black would be a great addition to egg nog
I’ve got another nog recipe to come and it does have Mr B in it!
First! (After Steve's comment)
I cheat though as I comment before it is published ;)
lol just buy the kirland one, or store bought and spike it, dude's baking a cake here
Takes 3 minutes to make and tastes waaaay better than store bought.
How many drinks you get with this base recipe?
I know, you are going with the bartenders and their versions of a good or great eggnog. If you want a true, amazingly good eggnog, please take a look at Chef John at Food wishes. You will not be disappointed.
I’ll have to try it but I do prefer the no cook method..
that patron looks too much like an egg!
Lol, it was meant to be..
Would love to try, but i have a question. Is it safe to drink coctail with raw egg? I mean like salmonella thing or something
Raw eggs have been mixed in drinks for 100s of years... here's some more info to ensure their safe use: www.cocktailsafe.org/eggs.html
Thx for info
Is there a real risk of salmonella? Is there a substitute for the eggs such as a pasteurized blend?
No risk the liquor kills any chance!
@@saltylettuce7541 thanks!
Your welcome happy holidays

For the love of God Montressor!
Do you know what fat content your heavy cream has, here in Quebec we have two that are considered “heavy” 15% MF and 35% MF
I used 35% - less will still work but not as rich..
Do you know you properly pronounce Oregon better than almost everyone in the US? Thank you!
