6 egg yolks
2 cups milk
1 cup whipping cream

- Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and warm it up. Just before it starts to boil, turn off the heat. Remove the saucepan from the stove and let it cool for 5 minutes.
- Slowly add the hot milk to the whipped eggs, tablespoon by tablespoon, allowing the eggs to gradually adjust to the temperature. Whisk vigorously while adding the milk.
- Once the milk and eggs are thoroughly combined and whisked, pour everything back into the saucepan. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a temperature of 71°C. Then, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool completely.
- Using a strainer, strain the eggnog into a bottle, ensuring a smooth texture, and refrigerate it to keep it chilled.
