Non-Alcoholic Traditional Holiday Nog:
12 large eggs, separated (5 large eggs = 1 cup)
½ tsp. salt
1-⅓ c. granulated sugar, divided
¼ c. rum-flavored extract (non-alcoholic)
5 c. half-and-half light cream
4 c. whole milk
2-½ c. whipping cream
Sprinkle of nutmeg, as garnish
Beat egg whites and salt until frothy. Gradually beat in ⅔ c. sugar and continue beating until mixture forms stiff peaks. In a punch bowl, use an electric hand mixer to beat egg yolks until light. Gradually add remaining sugar, beating on high until thick and lemon-colored. Add rum flavoring. Very slowly add light cream and milk, beating constantly. In a separate bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form. Fold whipped cream into meringue mixture; fold into mixture in punch bowl. If you live in a cold climate, pop this punch outside for an hour. If not, try to find room in the fridge! Sprinkle eggnog with nutmeg before serving. Makes approximately 30 punch cup-size servings. Assuming each person returns to the punch bowl three times, this eggnog serves 10.
