- STEP 6Pour in a glass jar and let it rest in the fridge until thickend. Store in the fridge.
- STEP 7This eggnog is eaten with a spoon out of small glasses. You can also put it on icecream, cakes... Pour it in small glass jars as a Christmas present Use the egg whites to make a big Pavlova, or small meringue tarts When kept in the fridge it will last a few weeks. If you don't have any vanilla (rhum) essence you can add a glass of rhum, whisky to the alcohol. But than use a little less alcohol.
