Ingredients
- Whole egg 12 pieces
- Ground Cinnamon 1 tablespoon

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Combine the milk with cinnamon, clove, and vanilla essence (1/2 teaspoon) in a saucepan. Place over low heat and remove from the stove just before it reaches boiling point.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar vigorously until they reach a fluffy, airy consistency.
Step 3
Gradually pour in the milk into the egg mixture in small portions, while continuously whisking.
Step 4
Pour the egg and milk mixture into a saucepan and place it over medium heat. Heat gently, stirring continuously with a whisk, until the mixture starts to thicken and resemble a cream.
Step 5
Remove the cloves from the mixture, transfer it to a large pitcher, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Step 6
While stirring thoroughly, add the cream, the remaining vanilla extract, nutmeg, and light rum to the mixture.
Step 7
Place the container with the eggnog in the refrigerator overnight. To prevent the alcohol from evaporating, cover it tightly with a lid or seal it with plastic wrap.
Step 8
Before serving, pour into glasses and lightly sprinkle with cinnamon or cocoa.
