I'm thinking of making some eggnog this year for Christmas.
Since I'm planning on sharing it with a few friends and my family, what would be a decent amount to make, and how much rum, brandy, or bourbon should I put in for flavour only?
Since we're all Nova Scotian/Canadian, what would be an appropriate spirit to use?

I think some faggot on here did Alton Brown's recipe so google that and post an OC that people can shit on as a diversion from fastfood posting and race baiting.

Experiment with a few recipes and pick the one you like. Make a gallon for the friends and family and use any decent brandy, whiskey, or bourbon.

Don't be afraid to substitute heavy cream for whole milk, or even skim milk if you really want to keep it light. Shit doesn't have to be a nuclear calorie bomb.

>whole milk, or even skim milk
I think I might do that too. Maybe even partially skimmed.

>for flavour only

Add it by tablespoons and taste as you go. Or better yet, if it’s only for flavor, use brandy or rum extract instead of the actual spirits.

Rum extract

>for real eggnog
1:1 combo of rum (Screech, Ironworks, or Fortress for maximum bluenose) and brandy in as much quantity as you can get into the nog without the cream curdling.

You'll love it. Between the creamed yolks and sugar, booze, and the beaten whites, it's not like you're losing out on much if you don't use cream in the recipe. Cream usually makes it too rich for me to really enjoy.

There's not much for jobs in the maritime.
Probably half the population has their feet up on the table, shit posting and waiting for fishing season or some shit.
