Faux Eggnog Holiday Mocktail
Let’s make an eggnog mocktail using only 4 ingredients! I feel like a bit of a fraud posting about this because never had I ever in my life actually had egg nog. It just wasn’t a big thing in my family, nor my husband’s! But after seeing a recipe and trying it myself, I added my own twist and I absolutely adore it. It’s smooth and frothy, creamy and warming. It’s the perfect pick me up for a cozy moment, or substitute for anytime you’re in the mood for a hot cocoa!
Faux Eggnog Holiday Mocktail Recipe
1 cup of milk
2 tbs honey
1/4 tps vanilla extract
Nutmeg (to taste)
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and stir constantly with an whisk until milk is simmering but not quite boiling. You will know it is about done when you stir constantly and steam appears over the milk. Pour into your favorite festive glass or mug, and allow to cool. I added more nutmeg at this point for extra flavor. Garnish with star anise, peppermint, chocolate shavings, or cinnamon!
