Whip rest (1/2) of cream and fold in carefully.\n\n## Presentation\n\n-   Serve at room temperature.\n-   Ladling eggnog into cups.\n-   Sprinkle nutmeg on top.\n\n\n## Notes\n\n- **Structured ingredients added (2026-07-30):** this recipe previously had no `ingredients` array — quantities lived only in a three-column markdown table (8 / 16 / 24 servings), so `shopping-list` returned nothing and scaling could not compute. The structured list is the **8-serving** column, matching the `servings` field; the table stays in the body for the larger batches. Also fixed unrendered `\u0026frac12` HTML entities that were displaying literally.\n","draft":false,"servings":"8","prep_time":"20 minutes","cook_time":"0 minutes","total_time":"20 minutes","created_at":"2014-11-26T07:59:47Z","updated_at":"2026-07-30T21:58:21.975802Z","categories":["Beverage"],"tags":["bourbon","Cream","Nutmeg","Rum","Vanilla"],"methods":["No-Cook"],"themes":["Holiday","Vegetarian"],"ingredients":[{"section":"","items":["4 fresh eggs, separated","120ml (½ cup) sugar, divided into two equal parts","120ml (½ cup) dark rum","360ml (1½ cups) whole milk","360ml (1½ cups) whiskey (bourbon or Canadian)","240ml (1 cup) heavy cream, divided into two equal parts","Ground nutmeg, to sprinkle on servings"],"parsed":[{"raw":"4 fresh eggs, separated","qty":4,"item":"fresh eggs","prep":"separated"},{"raw":"120ml (½ cup) sugar, divided into two equal parts","qty":120,"unit":"ml","item":"sugar","prep":"divided into two equal parts"},{"raw":"120ml (½ cup) dark rum","qty":120,"unit":"ml","item":"dark rum"},{"raw":"360ml (1½ cups) whole milk","qty":360,"unit":"ml","item":"whole milk"},{"raw":"360ml (1½ cups) whiskey (bourbon or Canadian)","qty":360,"unit":"ml","item":"whiskey"},{"raw":"240ml (1 cup) heavy cream, divided into two equal parts","qty":240,"unit":"ml","item":"heavy cream","prep":"divided into two equal parts"},{"raw":"Ground nutmeg, to sprinkle on servings","item":"Ground nutmeg, to sprinkle on servings"}]}],"servings_int":8,"qc":{"status":"passed","last_checked_at":"2026-07-30T21:59:58.385134Z","checked_by":"claude-code","standard_version":"2026-07-29","findings_count":0,"stale":false}}
