This pre-batched recipe benefits from an extended chilling period to allow the flavours to meld. Your choice of spiced rum will greatly impact your Eggnog
No rush! It's true that J.M. does larger batch recipe,
but he shared also a recipe for two, and I just divided it for one serve with a rich syrup instead of sugar,
so no blender is needed:
1 large egg
1.5 oz/40 ml rich syrup (instead of 37.5g sugar)
1 oz/30 ml añejo tequila
1.25 oz/ca 40 ml Amontillado sherry
3 oz/90 ml whole milk
2 oz/60 ml heavy cream
but I have adjusted the recipe for myself (a modern single serve version):
1 egg
30 ml Anejo Tequila
40 ml Amontillado Sherry
10 ml Rich Syrup
30 ml Heavy Cream
2 drops Saline solution
(Feel free to delete this if it's not needed. Thanks!)
Many thanks, I look forward to experimenting. In the meantime, this is the single-serve recipe I have:
1 small egg
22.5 (by volume) or 19 grams (by weight) fine sugar
15 añejo tequila
20 amontillado sherry
45 whole milk
30 heavy cream
