Kathy's Egg Nog



My mother in law makes this egg nog that their whole family (including cousins) go crazy for. Well, its Christmas time and Jimmy is craving his mom's egg nog. Last night I got all the ingredients, and we mixed it in my pink Kitchen Aid, and he thinks it turned out great. I don't drink egg nog, but I did have a taste, and from what I tasted it was OK. Jimmy would rate this a 10/10. Im not going to rate this because I don't drink egg nog, at all.
What you will need:

6-8 fresh eggs
2 cups sugar
Pint of half/half or lean evaporated milk (Jimmy says half/half is much better)
dash of salt
Nutmeg to taste
Milk to make 1 gallon

Beat eggs until light yellow and fluffy. Add salt and sugar and beat on a high speed until sugar is dissolved. Add half/half or evaporated milk and beat until smooth. Add nutmeg and a little vanilla if desired. Beat again, place mixture in a clean gallon of milk jug or jar and add milk to fill container. Taste and adjust flavoring if necessary. Keep chilled
