Southerner's Specialty Eggnog Recipe

Whip yolks until yellow and thick. Add sugar gradually, blending as you go, until thick and well-blended (on high in the mixer). Add half-and-half little-by-little. Add vanilla, nutmeg and alcohol. Blend well. Beat whites of eggs until stiff peaks form. Add to yolk mixture. Strain into pitcher and serve.

NOTES : You may increase the vanilla up to 1 tablespoon and the alcohol up to 1 cup, as desired.
