excellent with steaks barbecued outside! Over Memorial Day Weekend in 2005, my son and I developed this dish. Everyone in the family enjoyed it!

Reviews
This turned out pretty well, not overly boozy, with pure eggnog flavor. I used a sugar substitute (too many indulgences this time of year) in place of sugar and 2% milk (what we drink), and both subs worked out just fine. It’s rich, creamy, and indulgent, and you do need to allow it to chill before serving. A nice cocktail to enjoy over the Holidays.
