Amazingly Good Eggnog image

Due to health concerns about raw eggs, I've forgone eggnog for a number of years ... until I came across this recipe. The mixture is cooked so no danger from raw eggs. It's delicious! I usually keep some separate without rum for either kids or those who prefer no alcohol.
