Dairy Free, Soy Free Holiday Eggnog

Step 1: In large mixing bowl, whisk together yolks, 1 cup agave and vanilla extract, set aside.

Step 2: In medium stock pan, mix together ½ gallon almond milk (or other dairy free milk), regular coconut milk, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves.

Step 3: Over medium heat bring milk mixture to light boil, stirring constantly to ensure milk does not scorch. Once lightly boiling, reduce heat to low and slowly ladle ½ milk mixture into egg yolk mix, whisking the yolks very quickly to ensure even distribution.

Step 4: Once ½ milk has been added to yolk mixture, return milk/yolk into the stockpot, whisking mixture quickly until completely incorporated. Return heat to medium and continue to stir nog for five more minutes, removing from heat and allowing to cool.

Step 5: For topping: Using hand mixer, quickly whisk egg whites to soft peaks. At soft peaks, begin to slowly incorporate ¼ c agave nectar, whisking until stiff peaks have been achieved. Set aside.

Step 6: Serve warm or cold. Top with egg white ‘whipped’ topping and sprinkle with nutmeg, if desired.
