Low Carb Eggnog
As a kid once I started seeing eggnog in the stores, it was officially the holiday season. We wouldn’t but it all the time because it was loaded with fat and sugar. And mom would always thin it down with more milk to cut down on the calories and to make it last longer.I still crave eggnog as we get closer to Christmas. Luckily, it’s pretty easy to make a keto, sugar free version of eggnog. Keto eggnog is a combination of cream, and/or nut milk, egg yolks and your favorite sweetener. The hardest part is heating the yolks slowly to make sure the egg yolks don’t curdle. Even if you do curdle, you can strain them out and you will be left with creamy low carb eggnog.
Milk Options for Keto Eggnog
This recipe for keto eggnog is customizable to your milk preference. You can use all heavy cream or you can all or some nut milk.The nut milk I prefer is macadamia nut milk. It is creamy and is one of the better tasting nut milks that I have tried.Other Nut Milk Options for Low Carb Eggnog:

Keto Eggnog co*cktail
This eggnog is a delicious and creamy keto co*cktail you can enjoy on your holiday parties. I like to make a big batch of keto eggnog for our annual ugly sweater Christmas party and spike it with some white rum. My guests don’t even know the eggnog is sugar free!
Help, My Eggnog Curdled!
If your eggnog starts to curdle, you don’t need to throw away the entire batch. Just strain it through a mesh strainer to get out the chunks of curdle and you are left with smooth, creamy eggnog.
Leftover Eggnog
You can store your eggnog in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Or you can to use any leftovers to make this delicious Eggnog Chaffle with Creme Anglaise.
