On a whim, I looked around for recipes and came upon this one. It was so good that I decided to make it again. I put in a half tsp of pumpkin pie spice and it hit the spot. Also, I used Captain Morgan's spiced rum, which melded well with the pumpkin pie spice flavor. Definitely a keeper!

Best Eggnog I have ever had. We made both versions- raw and cooked. I only had the raw recipe, which I thought was fabulous. So tasty and light, not even close to as heavy as you get when you buy it in the store. Love!

I am drinking it right now and it is delicious!!! I have been drinking the carton version, and I won't go back. There are a couple of adjustments I will make for next time. This time, I used the cooked version and added the egg whites at the end as instructed. The texture was really new for my family and very thick (but I loved it...they are more used to the milk consistency. I think it is because I beat the egg whites to very stiff peaks and then folded them in. Next time, I will either not add the egg whites or beat them until they are at a frothy consistency, but not at a stiff peak level. The flavor is spot on! I used Kirkland brand bourbon and added a little bit of cinnamon, out of habit. I garnished each glass with a dash of nutmeg, and it was a big hit!

I've never been an eggnog enthusiast, but I've only ever had the commercial stuff that is full of artificial flavors and HFCS. This recipe was a HUGE hit with my Christmas guests. I think it will become a Christmas tradition.

I used the same recipe from other source except it had more spices. It was excellent. What I added was: 2 whole cloves, pinch of cinnamon, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Definitely better with those spices. I didn't add the egg whites but will try next time. I also will try to make this into ice cream.

We made the cooked version. I LOVED this eggnog. Best I've ever tasted. Now, having said that, I also don't drink alcohol, so we left that out, and my daughter put in 1/4 tsp of cinnamon with the nutmeg. Amazing! Try it! You're the best Alton. Love your ice cream too.

Very good and easy to make. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it was just a bit too thick for us, but that's an easy personal fix. Great eggnog!

Perfection! I will never buy the store-bought eggnog in the carton again. This recipe was so easy and fun to make, and the result was so delicious. I made the cooked version. I did the first part the night before to allow it to chill, and then whipped the egg whites in the morning (Christmas morning!. I whipped the egg whites not quite to stiff peak, and whisked them into the liquid until they were well-incorporated (rather than just folding them in. Used brandy because that's what I had on hand. Absolutely superb!

Very tasty. We prefer dark rum to the bourbon but it's all good.
