I am so so excited to share this recipe with you! This Homemade Holiday Eggnog from My Man's Grandma B. who is almost 100 years old and IT IS THE BEST EGGNOG on the planet! My Man makes it every year for Christmas Eve (and sometimes New Year's too). It's got ice cream and it's so fresh and delicious . . .so My Man and I are gonna show you how to make this vintage, crowd-pleasing, homemade eggnog. People who don't normally like eggnog, usually end up liking this stuff

6 fresh eggs with a good freshness date (no old eggs--ever!)
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp of ginger
1/4 tsp of Allspice
a sprinkle of nutmeg
1/4 cup of sugar (optional, you may think it's sweet enough already)
2 quarts of orange juice
1 liter of lemon-lime soda pop
1/2 gallon of vanilla ice cream

First thing to do is inspect your eggs. There must be absolutely NO CRACKS or dried egg goop from another egg. Never use old eggs. Next, gently wash you eggs in soapy warm water. We use anti-bacterial...
