Homemade Vegan Eggnog Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)
- 1 cup coconut milk (canned for creaminess)
- 1/2 cup raw cashews (soaked in water for 2 hours, then drained)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric (for color, optional)
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1-2 tablespoons rum or bourbon (for an adult version)
Instructions:
- Blend Ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked cashews, almond milk, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, nutmeg, cinnamon, turmeric (if using), and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the eggnog and adjust sweetness and spices as desired. If you prefer a sweeter eggnog, add more maple syrup.
- Chill: Transfer the mixture to a pitcher or container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill. This allows the flavors to meld together.
- Serve: Before serving, give the eggnog a good stir. Pour into glasses and garnish with an extra sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon. If desired, add a splash of rum or bourbon for a warm kick.
- Enjoy: Serve your homemade vegan eggnog chilled or warmed, and enjoy the festive flavors!
