Orange Eggnog Float No Alcohol Recipes

NON-ALCOHOLIC HOLIDAY EGGNOG

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a heavy 3-or 4-quart pan, whisking until well-combined.
• Continue whisking while pouring the milk in a slow, steady stream until completely incorporated.
• Place the pan over the lowest possible heat setting; stir the mixture continuously until an ​ instant-read thermometer reaches 160 F and the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Be patient-this should take about 45 to 60 minutes.
• Once the mixture has thickened, strain it through a fine sieve into a large bowl to remove any possible small cooked bits of egg.
• Add the vanilla extract and nutmeg, stirring to combine.
• Carefully pour the mixture into a glass pitcher, decanter, or container and cover with a lid or plastic wrap. Refrigerate the egg custard mixture to fully chill the eggnog, at least 4 hours or up to 3 days.
• When ready to serve, pour the heavy cream into a bowl and whip until it forms soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream into the cold custard mixture until combined.
• Serve the eggnog in chilled cups or glasses and garnish with a sprinkle of nutmeg. If anyone is adding alcohol to their glass, make sure to leave some room.

ORANGE EGGNOG FLOAT - (NO ALCOHOL)

Steps:

• Beat eggs and sugar until light (no separation).
• Stir in orange and lemon juices.
• Put small scoops of ice cream in a punch bowl.
• Pour ginger ale against the sides (inside, would be my choice!) of the bowl (to preserve the bubbles).
• Add juice mixture slowly, stir gently.
• Serve immediately.

NONALCOHOLIC EGGNOG

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl.
• Heat the milk and 3/4 cup of the cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat until the liquid starts to steam; remove from the heat.
• Whisk about 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, then pour the milk-egg mixture back into the saucepan. Return the saucepan to medium heat, and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon and a thermometer reads 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat, and stir in the vanilla and nutmeg. Strain the liquid through a fine mesh strainer into a medium bowl, and let it cool at room temperature until it is no longer hot, about 1 hour. Refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours up to 3 days.
• When ready to serve, whip the remaining 3/4 cup cream with an electric mixer in a large bowl to medium peaks. Then, while whisking, slowly pour in the cold milk-egg mixture. The eggnog should be creamy and thicker than heavy cream. Serve with a light sprinkle of nutmeg and lemon zest if using.

NON-ALCOHOLIC EGGNOG

Steps:

• Put the vanilla seeds in a large bowl. Add the egg yolks and sugar syrup, and beat with an electric whisk until pale, about 2-3 mins. Add the cream and milk, and beat again until just combined.
• Fill a large jug with ice, then strain in the eggnog mixture. Stir gently until the outside of the jug feels cold, then pour the eggnog into tumblers to serve.
