Egg nog, what's your favorite brand?

Question

I like Horizon's organic egg nog best, but it's very expensive.

Answer 1

Homemade!

3 cups non-fat milk
2 (1 by 2-inch) pieces orange zest
1 cinnamon stick
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Serving suggestion: Ground cinnamon
Special equipment: Milk frother or Immersion blender

In a non-stick saucepan combine 2 cups of the milk, the orange zest, and cinnamon. Heat over medium-high heat until just below a boil. Remove from the heat and set aside for 30 minutes to steep. Refrigerate the remaining cup of milk.

Reheat the milk mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl whisk together the eggs and sugar. Gradually pour half the hot milk into the egg mixture while whisking constantly. Pour the hot egg mixture back into the milk and cook the custard over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened, about 4 minutes. Don't let the custard boil. Strain custard into a bowl. Discard the cinnamon and orange zest. Add the vanilla to the custard and set aside to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until cold.

When ready to serve, foam the reserved cold milk with a milk frother or immersion blender, and fold into the custard. Serve eggnog in cups dusted with cinnamon.

Answer 2

I like Trader Joe's brand. It's the best I've ever bought and tried!
Poppy Seed Milk
Recipe #201222
A Lithunainan, non dairy smoothie, which is often used in place of eggnog, to celebrate the first officila day of winter (Winter Solstice). At first it might seem or look discouraging, but it's worth a try! It really doesn't take many ingredients.

2 servings 30 minues from start to finnih.
2 cups poppy seeds
3 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
Place the seeds in a 1 qt or 2 qt measuring cup, or a medium bowl. Add enough hot water to cover, about 3 cups. Allow the seeds to steep in the water for 10 minutes. A little longer shouldn't hurt.
Transfer the seeds and water to a working blender. Blend at high speed until very smooth, about 3 to 4 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, arrange several layers of overlapping cheese cloth near a clan medium bowl. Spoon mixture into the cheesecloth, twist the cloth closed and squeeze over the new bowl.
Discard the pulp from inside the cheesecloth and repeat procedure with remainging mixture in the blender. Whisk the sugar and extract into the milk, then refrigerate until chilled.
