Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using almond almond milk for its mild flavor, but feel free to switch it up with oat or soy almond milk. The coconut coconut cream adds that luscious creaminess that makes this eggnog feel indulgent. And don't skip the aquafaba; it gives that frothy texture that traditional eggnog has!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep mine in a glass jar in the fridge, and it stays fresh for about 3-4 days, but it rarely lasts that long!
- •For an extra festive touch, you can add a splash of rum or bourbon if you’re feeling adventurous.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll throw in a splash of espresso for a coffee twist, which is surprisingly delightful!
- •You can also use other spices like cardamom or ginger for a different flavor profile.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Just give it a good stir before serving again, as it may separate a bit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can make the base a day in advance. Just whisk in the aquafaba right before serving to keep that lovely froth.
