While building up a meal plan for the upcoming holidays, I’ve been outlining different food and drink ideas. I started my Keto journey in January, so this wasn’t an issue for cooking and baking last year! I’m always up for a challenge though, so my food ideas have been going crazy in my head. The idea came upon me all of a sudden…
I already had several egg yolks reserved in the fridge, from my recent adventures with mastering my new Keto Vanilla Cupcake Recipe. What do you do with lots of egg yolks, you ask? You make EGGNOG! Yeah! There it was. Pretty sure everything I needed was sitting in my fridge and cupboards. Let’s do this!
One of my favorite holiday drinks has been homemade eggnog with lots of sugar and rum. Obviously, that wouldn’t do. This base needs to be rich, creamy, and slightly sweet on the tongue, but without all of the sugar. Something perfect on its own, but a great base for a cheesecake also.
I’m telling you, it’s always going to be about the cheesecake. That’s just fact.
Alright, lets get to it! This recipe is quite honestly, very simple. Though, you have to take the time, go slow, and watch the temperature. Scrambled eggs are NOT where it’s at for this drink. After you finish cooking this, I recommend leaving it in the fridge overnight. If you can’t wait, a couple of hours will due.

Why would anyone on Keto DRINK 21 of their carbs when they are usually limited to 20 carbs per day? I am wondering if this is a mistake because none of the ingredients actually have any carbs except the sweetener.
