      You should be careful about telling people that stuff can't go bad. Your nog can go rancid, if the seal on the container isn't tight enough or the bottle is opened in a bad air environment. It is just like olive oil, bacteria can't survive in because of the fat content, but that same fat can go rancid in the presence of sulfur compounds.

      @@ericcooke2661 so if the seal is tight its not gonna go "rancid" right? I dont think its his job to tell people how any liquid not sealed properly will go bad. Thats just common sense. All he said was that it CAN be stored indefinitely. and when stored properly and sealed correctly hes not wrong so i think its perfectly fine to say so.
      Also what would you consider a bad air environment?

    As someone who is paranoid about the use of raw eggs; my preferred method of building the pro cocktail is to add first the eggs, then immediately after, the full amount of alcohol to the blender. *Then* any other diluents.
    Has minimal effect on the final product, but blending the full strength alcohol with the eggs can give you substantially more confidence that any nasties will be killed off before they can make it to your glass.

    Dark rum for me. I also add the cinnamon and nutmeg to the rum before adding to the egg nog. The alcohol makes it disperse much more evenly in the nog, without lumps. It also extracts the flavors of the spices better using this method.

    • @andrewbarbel6876
      @andrewbarbel6876 3 роки тому +4

      Yes, a high enough alcohol content will keep the bad stuff at bay. I would balk at aging a nog with anything less than 20% ABV, ESPECIALLY if you aren't using pasteurized milk and eggs. I make aged eggnog every year and haven't gotten sick yet. I cannot stress how much better the non-pasteurized stuff tastes over pasteurized, but I understand the piece of mind it would give.

      Get lime skins(about 15-20 limes worth) make sure there is no fruit meat, only skin. Put in 95 % alcohol (everclear or something similar) wait a month.
      Make simple syrup.
      Let cool
      Mix with the extraction from step one. In a minimum ratio of 1:1. This will be strong, add more simple syrup to desired strength. I prefer 1 part extraction to 3(or 4) parts simple syrup.
      This is a balancing game. Mess with the aspects to get one you like the most.
      Do the same steps with lemon to get Limoncello

    I've been a fan of eggnog ever since I could remember.......think I was drinking it at age 4 IIRC, non alcoholic of course. I'm a little embarrassed to say this but........I've never had actual, home made nog ever!! I know, sad right? I usually just buy a carton of Prairie Farms eggnog(my fave) or the Southern Comfort brand, and booze it up and it works just fine but.........I really, really wanna make my own. I always say I'm gonna make some around July and let it age and get nice and smooth in time for the holidays but seems like I always forget come November. I may just break down and make some anyways and it just won't be as good as it could have been had I let it set up for a few months. So how's everyone feel about raw eggs? I've heard from many people that they are highly unlikely to contain salmonella , and even if there were trace amounts, likely the booze would kill the bacteria. I'm not gonna lie, I'm still a little paranoid about getting salmonella. Should I go with pasteurized eggs, which I hear have zero risk of salmonella l, or just quit being a bitch and take my chance with regular eggs?

    Nick, video suggestion: it's a bit unpleasant to see the clear measuring cup to be reused with the cup still dirty from the previous ingredients when you poured ingredients into the blender.

    Expand this recipe as needed: one egg, 1.5 oz brandy or rum, 1 oz cream, 0.5 oz brown sugar 1:1 syrup, and seasoning as desired. Whisk vigorously, let sit for at least ten minutes, whisk again and serve or drink.
