'tis that season

Using this recipe by Jeffrey Morgenthaler as a guide, I've put up some short-term egg nog for Christmas week. I may try some aged egg nog for next season, but that's a topic for another time.

Naturally I'm looking to spike my nog with rum, rather than the tequila/sherry combination presented in the original recipe. But in the spirit of those ingredients, I've used 2 aged Plantation rums: the 5 year Barbados for the "Añejo"' and a 1999 aged Plantation Trinidad rum that was finished in sherry casks.

Results late tomorrow, once it has chilled overnight in the fridge.
