I make the non alcoholic version with rum extract (doesn't take much. I also discovered I much prefer it without the egg whites whipped. The froth makes it harder to enjoy. I just whip the whole recipe so it's light and delicious.

Wow! I made this (cooked for the first time (also the 2nd time I've ever had eggnog and it is delicious! The only modification I made was adding a splash of vanilla while the cream mixture was on the stove. It's frothy, spicy, woody, and creamy - a delicious winter drink!

Excellent! This was the first Eggnog recipe that I've made and it was so easy! I made it for Christmas morning while we gathered around the Christmas tree to open gifts (a tradition in my family. I made the uncooked version and omitted the bourbon. Delicious!!

The BEST Christmas present EVER!! December 24 running from one store to another and another looking for egg nog which was not to be found. We found Alton's recipe, had the ingredients (except spiced rum instead of bourbon and I remembered seeing it on TV before. The uncooked version was so easy and fun to make with the Kitchen Aid but the results were the best ... delicious beyond words! We made many batches between Christmas Eve and New Year's. As so many have said, we will not go back to the carton stuff!! Thank you for the wonderful Christmas gift (and new tradition Alton and Food Network!!

Excellent! I made the cooked version for a holiday gathering. Served brandy on the side. Received many complements. Easier to prepare than I expected. I put the leftover eggnog in a plastic pitcher so I could shake ingredients before pouring. My husband and I don't usually like eggnog but we thoroughly enjoyed this with or without the alcohol. Highly recommend. Thanks Alton!

This receipe has just become our family's new tradition.

Our family cannot use cow's milk products, so we normally substitute butter for the soy-free Earth Balance natural buttery spread (which comes in stick and soft form and we substitute whole milk or heavy cream with Almond milk, which is made by Silk or other brands and comes in plain, vanilla and chocolate. We love them all!

Anyway, I made Alton's eggnog receipe and it was SOOOOOooooo good! It has become increasingly harder to find Silk Nog on our grocer's shelf, so we have sometimes gone without. Why I didn't make it myself before I'll never know.

Thank you Alton! We love Good Eats and have all your cookbooks. Thank you for bringing more to the listener than just a receipe, your knowledge of why and how is so interesting and fun. Our whole family are fans of yours. Happy New Year to you and yours! 12/31/2012

I have been making eggnog at Christmas for about the past 10 years. This year is the first time I made Alton's recipe and it is by far the BEST!!!! It is very easy and my family loved it! I added a little cinnamon to mine and it sent it over the top!! Thanks for this one Alton!!

"Whisk the egg whites into the mixture." should read "Whisk the egg whites into the yolk mixture." It is misleading.
