When I was a kid, egg nog was a treat. It was also, well, sickly sweet so it makes sense that I wanted to drink it ALL the time.
First, I had no idea how filling this Paleo Egg Nog recipe is. WOW. This made about 2 cup but I could only drink 1/4 cup before feeling like I was going to burst. It’s also spicy, lightly sweet goodness and a delicious drink for the holiday. If you have any rum in your pantry, I highly encourage you to spike it and kick it up a notch.
Ingredients
- 1 13.5 oz can Full Fat Coconut Milk
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon power
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoon B grade maple syrup
- 2 egg yolks
Instructions
-
In a sauce pan over low heat add the coconut milk and whisk in the spices. Once the liquid is warm remove from the heat. Let cool so the liquid is warm to the touch.
-
Whisk in the egg yolks.
-
You can either drink warm or cool
-
Enjoy!

Kelly, this looks delicious! I’ll admit, I’m not the biggest fan of eggnog, but I might have to give your recipe a go!
I made my own egg nog one year and I had so much of it, it was crazy.
I’m not a huge fan of eggnog but I’ve always wanted to make it myself for party or some festive event. I usually have to thin it down because thick drinks don’t work for me.
Oooh.. I can’t wait to try this one out.
This is my first paleo Christmas and I thought I was going to have to go without nog this year.
I hope you enjoy it!
Yes please! I love egg nog, I take mine cold 😉
The holidays always bring Egg Nog and i’ve still yet to try it …. I really need to.
I love eggnogs! And would love to try this!
I love a good egg nog. I had no idea how easy it was to make at home though!
I love egg nog but have never tried to make my own. This sounds easy enough.
are the raw eggs a noticeable taste??
i’ve never had raw eggs before. kind of nervous to try it haha it looks so creamy and delicious.
Joanna, you are lightly cooking the egg since you are putting into warm liquid. You won’t taste it at all but it will make this drink extra filling 🙂
In the thirty years of my life, I’ve never had Egg Nog before. Maybe thirty one will be the magical year…
Egg Nog is something I don’t care for, but my husband loves it. I suppose I could be nice and make some for him 🙂
