Easy Faux Eggnog Recipe – a delicious non-alcoholic eggnog recipe that is so simple and is kid-friendly!
Hello Friends! Happy Holiday Season! Are you enjoying hearing all the holiday music and the anticipation of the holiday gatherings! I have to say that I am very excited about the holidays and have started to decorate our home with all things Christmas. Today I am sharing a wonderful eggnog recipe for the entire family.
I’ve always been a big fan of eggnog. There’s just something about the flavors and aromas that make always me think of Christmastime and brings back fond memories of my childhood. Back then, I thought that all eggnog was made this way. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized that the way my mom made it was not the traditional method, which was in fact made with raw eggs. This simple Faux Eggnog recipe has just a few ingredients and is so easy to make.
This eggnog recipe is creamy and rich and is pure comfort food and everyone loves it! It is a nice option to have homemade eggnog in a punch bowl or pitcher at holiday parties and you can
This homemade eggnog does not require cooking at all, in fact, you can make it in a bowl or pitcher in just a little time. I like to serve it in little milk bottles, but a punch bowl or pitcher works great too! You can serve with whipped cream on top.
It also goes nicely with a holiday fondue party or any wintertime gathering.

This recipe is pretty streamlined, but you can make this ahead of time. I like to make it a couple of hours before serving. If eggnog thickens, just add a little more milk. You can use 2% or whole milk for this recipe.

Thank you! I *love* eggnog, but was diagnosed with diabetes this year and have missed drinking my favorite holiday beverage. (I missed out on apple cider last season too. 🙁 ) However, this is a recipe that I can make with sugar free pudding and a sugar substitute! It will still have plenty of calories and some natural sugars in the milk, but in moderation might give me the “taste of the season” without the guilt!
Raquel says
Yes, the sugar free pudding works! I am so glad you can enjoy this version! 🙂

Yum! It’s kid friendly and Tamara friendly! Looks perfect. My parents made it for me as a kid and would make one for adults and one for us. Tastes like Christmas.
Raquel says
Yes totally tastes like Christmas. I actually like the kids version better!

This is brilliant!! I love that there’s no alcohol AND no raw eggs in it, lol. My husband likes to have a glass or two of eggnog during Christmas season, but he hates buying a whole container of it at the store. I’m going to make this for him as a surprise! 🙂 He’ll love the homemade aspect. Thanks for sharing!
Raquel says
Yes no raw eggs is definitely a plus! Hope you like it!
