Vegan eggnog?

Last edited Thu Nov 29, 2012, 12:39 AM - Edit history (1)

I haven't had eggnog in years, but I have a dim recollection of liking it.

I have sourced a local, ethical producer of eggs, so I might make it myself, with eggs.

But are there any vegan alternative recipes? I've seen some via Google, but always like to have DU recommendations...

nutmeg, ginger, or cinnamon, but they're all vegan, too

So I guess your question is for vegan alternatives to the milk and eggs

We bought some for the first time yesterday and I haven't tried it yet. I like Silk's other products so I hope we'll like this one too.

I am not fond of nog in any form, but I've fed both to omnis who dig nog, and they liked them.

edit: Both are easy to find at regular grocery stores, at least out here.
