Added a lil Woodford Reserve, and I must say it was mighty good.

You should make your own. It's mindblowingly good.

Exactly. Homemade egg nog is a completely different animal than that thick sludge you can buy in a carton.

Alton Brown's is foolproof. It's SO good.

Search on this forum for an Egg Nog batch thread. I haven't done it yet, but a number of posters do it and share recipes and pics of their egg nog.

That's the one I use. Uncooked version.

Ingredients
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
1 pint whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
3 ounces bourbon
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
4 egg whites*

In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the egg yolks until they lighten in color. Gradually add the 1/3 cup sugar and continue to beat until it is completely dissolved.

Add the milk, cream, bourbon and nutmeg and stir to combine.

Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat to soft peaks. With the mixer still running gradually add the 1 tablespoon of sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.

Whisk the egg whites into the mixture.

Chill and serve.
