It isn't my Grandma's recipe but it isn't a secret either since it was posted by a member on BYH:

Note the reduction of booze. Great Grandma Wall must have had a lot of people staggering around on Christmas Day! We've not determined what size shot "Grandma" used. I put in 6 of the larger side from a 2 'sided' jigger ~1.3 oz each. Potent enough for us! I replaced the "missing" liquid with DW's nonfat Lactaid milk.

It is really smoooooth, especially after a couple of days in the refrigerator though it does lose some of its "loft". It also separates (no surprise) so a good shake is necessary.

Here are the pictures I posted when I made it:

I enjoyed reading those posts, lol.

The one I make is liquor-free (but it can be doctored to anyone's liking). Here's my recipe:eggnog-anytime.68099

Quite a bit different, your's sounds like less hassle (unless you decide you want to beat the ingredients by hand again).
 
Um, Grandma Wall's is also a LOT of work! Interestingly different, one is cooked, the other not.

"Note: Scramble the egg whites and feed them back to your chickens!"
Or to weird people who want "whites only" omelettes. No one in this house. DD1's gluten free bread takes either whites or yolks, don't recall which. The "remains" are often used to make chocolate truffles. Of course 18 eggs would make 9 loaves of bread and I have NO idea how many truffles.

Nope, no whites only omelettes in this house either :sick

Now if I knew how to make chocolate truffles out of them, that would be a different story! Of course, I'd have to have 18 eggs at one time and that's not looking likely.

Nope, I checked, the bread uses the whites. You need the leftover yolks for the truffles. Not sure DD1 is interested in making 9 loaves of bread at one time.

I'm sure @CntryBoy777 would send you a bunch of duck eggs (no guarantee they will arrive unbroken ;) )

Ok folks, another hangover egg nog recipe. This was very good, but trust me when I say a little goes a very long way. And it truly does get better with age. Debby, I made one very similar to yours for years, but it was a no cook recipe and used heavy cream.

Whoa, that one would definitely put the shine in your eyes, lol. Interesting about aging it, never would have thought of that.
