重要なメモ

⚠️

Using a thermometer is crucial to ensure the eggs are safely cooked and the custard has the right consistency.

⚠️

The eggnog tastes best when it's served extremely cold. Chilling the custard base thoroughly is a key step.

⚠️

For the best texture, whisk the eggnog in the pitcher right before each pour, as the egg whites can separate slightly over time.

⚠️

While bourbon is used in the video, dark rum is also a classic choice. The alcohol is optional but adds significant traditional flavor.

⚠️

Freshly grated nutmeg provides a much better aroma and flavor than pre-ground nutmeg.
