Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a medium saucepan, whisk together the 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup sugar until pale and frothy, about 2 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Gradually whisk in the 2 cups milk, then place the saucepan over medium heat.

  3. Step 3

    Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the spoon, about 8-10 minutes. Do not let it boil.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from heat and stir in the 1 cup hot brewed coffee until fully combined.

  5. Step 5

    Pour the eggnog coffee into mugs and serve warm, optionally topped with a sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon.

  6. Step 6

    If you prefer a cold version, let the mixture cool, then refrigerate and serve over ice.
