EGG NOG

Don't you just LOVE EGG NOG?
Frothy, creamy, dreamy DELICIOUS! Not so figure friendly though.....so we have some awesome egg nog alternatives for you this Christmas! First up with two store bought versions... Silk SOYmilk nog and second, SoDelcious's COCONUTmilk nog, both which taste tested by our B-Fitters got an A++!!
 

So don't be afraid to eat drink and be merry this season!!
And hey if you have a couple minutes, (really that's all this takes,) try our COCONUT MILK EGG NOG recipe below!
 
Coconut Eggnog
2 cans (14 ounces each) coconut milk
6 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar (optional - or sub in some raw honey...)
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
8 ounces spiced rum/bourbon
Ice
1/3 toasted unsweetened coconut flakes for garnish

Bring coconut milk to a simmer in a medium pot over medium high heat. Whisk together egg yolks, sweetener (sugar or honey) and vanilla in a bowl until smooth and pale. Gradually whisk 1/2 of the hot coconut milk into the egg mixture, then pour into remaining coconut milk. Cook over medium heat stirring until thick and mixture nearly coats the back of a wooden spoon, 2-3 minutes.

Pour through a fine sieve into a bowl. Stir in booze and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to overnight. Pour into a pitcher and serve over ice garnished with coconut flakes.
