I suddenly have a huge craving for Eggnog. Where can I buy it??? Where??? Anyone know!?

[Captain Corea]

Agreed, I'd love to find some too.

You're going to have to make it, I haven't seen it anywhere, so starting last year, I started making it myself. The ingredients aren't too hard to find. The trickiest is vanilla. You can find vanilla and nutmeg at Namdaemun.

If you can fry an egg you can make eggnog.

It's so easy and tastes better than store bought.

There are a 1001 recipes on the 'net.

Simply get a Korean write down the Korean words for vanilla and nutneg and pick them up on your next shopping trip. Eggs, milk.

Red Door black market store had 3 quarts. They were pretty good. Burp.
They/she also has the ingedients.

The recipe I have goes as follows

Mix 2 cups of milk with 1/3 cup of sugar and 4 beaten egg yolks. Cook this on low heat while stirring constantly. If it's too hot, it gets lumpy and nasty. Keep cooking until the mixture is thick enough to coat the spoon. That will be about 20 minutes (?)

Pour the mixture into a metal bowl. Put the metal bowl into an ice bath. After it has cooled down somewhat, mix into it 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla, 2-4 tablespoons of rum or burbon (or mix them together) and put it in the refrigerator. It needs to cool for at least 4 hours. While cooling, I like to sprinkle nutmeg on top.

The vanilla and alcohol can change depending on your preference.
