Eggnog Milkshake Tips and Variations

This recipe is really easy to play with. You can switch things up to suit your taste preferences. Here are some ideas to get you started.

  • Eggnog: I used store-bought egg nog for this recipe, but you can use homemade eggnog!
  • Adult Version: To make this a boozy milkshake, I recommend replacing ¼-⅓ of the eggnog with the bourbon, rum or brandy of your choice. Alternatively, you can add a few ounces of bourbon to the recipe as it is written, then add a few additional scoops of ice cream to avoid it being too thin.
  • Garnish: I love the way fresh nutmeg tastes when dusted on top, but whole nutmeg can be expensive. If you want to just sprinkle ground nutmeg on top as a garnish, that will work just as well!
  • Ice Cream: I chose to use French vanilla ice cream for this recipe, but you can use any vanilla that you prefer.
