Eggnog For A Dairy-Free Holiday

If you have been searching for how to make dairy-free eggnog, you've come to the right place.

After I made eggnog smoothies, I got curious to try making boozy eggnog. I added one quarter cup light rum to my smoothie mixture, and the same to this coconut milk-based version. I refrigerated each for a week to compare.

Both are delicious: creamy, not too thick, not too sweet, with a lovely holiday flavor. And the nog just gets better with age, so make this up now and enjoy it on Christmas Eve (or even better New Year's Eve).

Instead of rum, you could use bourbon, brandy or a combination. If you want to really taste the booze, add a half cup to this recipe.
