I can't wait to try your version, but I wanted to say...don't limit yourself to just bourbon in it...I use Spiced Rum and my mother-in-law uses Southern Comfort, which I thought sounded gross, but was delicious! Bourbon is good too...just thought you might like to mix it up a little, lol. My mom always makes homemade eggnog (with raw eggs), which is delicious.

There's not enough Purell in the northern hemisphere for these people, and tweaking them is really the highlight of any family gathering.

Ick! I guess that I must have thought that those eggs got cooked somehow. Obviously, other than the sample that I had in the grocery, I've never had egg nog. That sample I'm sure was pasteurized to death. Okay, maybe it’s just the Northerner in me, but no one is grossed out by the raw egg aspect at all? Ick!

This means, of course, that I NEED eggnog so's I don't waste away to nothing! What with the death of Mr. Snowblower and all the snow shoveling, I’ve actually LOST weight.

I've been drinking it all holiday season. For the baby, you know. He needs some calcium. I’m not an eggnog fan, but I love me some boiled custard. I’ve been drinking it all holiday season.

Eggnog practically replaces milk around here from the beginning of November until hubby can't get it anymore. Seriously though, we made bread pudding with it, snickerdoodles with it (OMGosh). I can hardly handle drinking the stuff myself, but I'll HAVE to give this a try for the fam. Holy Moly.
