The recipe is good but I think that there is too much egg white and that makes it too thick and hides the taste of the delicious milk, vanilla and yolk mixture! I think the milk quantity is fine, you will not get anything even resembling scrambled eggs as long as you follow the directions for tempering the yolks. (i.e. Adding a little hot milk mixture to the yolks to raise their temperature before adding rest of yolk to milk!
It is also a good idea to go light on the alcohol until you taste it, then adjust to your taste. Using cheap booze is probably not a good idea because the poor quality will be reflected in your egg nog.
All in all a pretty good recipe and definitely better than the store-bought stuff!

It's a great recipe until I added 3 cups of Alcohol. Way, way, to bitter. I did use cheap brandy though. If someone wants to comment or has any suggestions, let me know. Next time I'm going to cut it in half.

I can't get scared by warnings about raw eggs when there's a recipe like this one floating around.
