Tis the season

And we all know what that means: eggnog.

This is an eggnog appreciation thread.

We shall discuss herein the delightful drink. Do you guys drink it spiked or not? I personally prefer to drink it without alcohol, but I do not mind the occasional dash of rum. Be it spiked or not spiked, I do demand some nutmeg, however.

My recipe:
12 egg yolks
a roughly equal volume of sugar
some flavoring spices such as:
nutmeg
vanilla bean
Ceylon cinnamon (not that cassia crap)
allspice
cardamon
one 750 mL bottle of brownish booze

whisk yolks, sugar, and your choice of spices together until light in color, slowly whisk in booze, chill for at least one hour, quaff
