Vegan Creamy Eggnog
Rich, creamy, and it's totally egg-free and non-dairy! This luscious vegan eggnog is super easy to whip-up and the perfect drink for holiday gatherings!
Eggnog also known as a milk punch or a holiday sludge when liquor is added, is a rich, chilled, creamy, sweetened beverage. It is traditionally made with milk, cream, sugar and whipped eggs which gives it a frothy texture, and its name.
Let's make an egg-free, dairy-free vegan eggnog.
Prep time: 4 hours + 10 minutes
Serves: 3 people
METHOD:
- Place the cashews, water, coconut milk, banana, maple syrup, nutmeg, and salt into a blender and blend until smooth*.
- Taste-test and make any adjustments as needed. Add the rum or whiskey if using, and pulse the machine again to combine.
- Optionally, top with vegan whipped coconut cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
NOTE:
*If your blender isn't high-powered, start by blending the cashews with ½ cup of water, until relatively smooth, then add the remaining ingredients and blend again.
*Most liquors are vegan but it doesn't hurt to check, we usually use Barnivore just to be sure
*Brandy, rum, whisky or bourbon are often added as an ingredient to make this beverage more fun.
