It’s Friday and I’m still a little under the weather.

But hey, on the bright side… the other day I got to sip on some spiked coconut eggnog at 11 in the morning. That was fun.

Sometimes I can’t believe I get to do this full-time, in my jammies. Anywho, this was my first go at homemade nog. The whole raw egg thing can be a little scurrrry, but I trust my farm eggs so I got over it. Plus the rum totally kills any bacteria right?

I decided to put a twist on your traditional eggnog. First these aren’t warm… I think that if you wanted to make a custard base and go through that you could serve these warm. I’m in no way a nog-spert {ha! I just made that up} so don’t quote me. But I was thinking a chilled glass of coconutty-rum-y nog would be a splendid. Don’t ya think? For all my dairy free folks, I can’t see why you couldn’t sub coconut milk for the heavy cream. :9

Now let’s drink up.

Start by emptying a can of unsweetened coconut milk into a 2 cup liquid measuring cup. In the can the coconut “solids” tend to float to the top while the liquids settle to the bottom. So I always have to give it a good stirring beforehand. I then would stick the coconut in the fridge for one hour to chill it. Who wants a leuk-warm cocktail? nobody!

In your blender, carefully crack in two eggs, look out for any shells. Ps. this blender was given to me for a baby shower gift 12 years ago so I could make homemade baby food. It’s on its last leg… and I’m hoping for a Blendtec for Christmas. I need an upgrade!

Next, secure the lid to the blender and let it rip until the eggs are frothy.
