TRADITIONAL EGGNOG
A great traditional eggnog with brandy and dark rum. I found this recipe a few years back and have been making it around the holidays and giving it as gifts every year since. It usually goes pretty quick and a lot of my family and friends who say they don't like eggnog like this stuff!

Steps:
- Using the blunt edge of your knife, scrape the insides from the vanilla bean.
- Add the vanilla scrapings to the blender. Add remaining ingredients and blend for about 45 seconds on high, or until thoroughly combined and smooth.
- Pour into a clean bottle with a tight fitting lid or a clean canning jar with a tight fitting lid.
- Place in the refrigerator and allow it to mellow for at least two weeks prior to serving. The longer it ages, the smoother the flavor will be. Another little bit of magic; as it ages, it will deepen not only in flavor but in color. If you use eggs from your own chickens -or from the chickens of a generous farmer friend- the liqueur will reach an almost orange color.
- This is good for two months in the refrigerator.
- *Take your scraped vanilla bean pod and put it in a jar with a couple cups of plain sugar. Put a tight lid on it and stick it in a dark place. In a week you'll have vanilla sugar. As you use it up and start running low, just add additional sugar and shake the jar. Voila! Never ending vanilla sugar!
