Smoked Spiced Christmas Eggnog
Well, well, well, what is Eggnog when it's not Christmas time? (A delicious drink, add alcohol of choice and make 2020 disappear!!)
We are making this for our White Christmas event at European Foods, our only live event at Christmas in 2020. It is good to know that this year is nearly up isn't it?
I have been loving playing around with smoking. Not the cigarette kind, but smoking using a glass dome, a flame thrower and some spices. It does enhance the flavours and is a lot of fun! We served this unsmoked at the class due to numbers, but if you are only serving a few people, it is pretty easy to do if you are brave enough! Don't let the kids get involved. That's all I'm saying!
You can replace all of the doTERRA oils with dried spices or zest of citrus. As the oils are very strong in flavour, you will need to taste and adjust if using the dried version.
Here are a couple more egg noggy ideas:

To smoke the eggnog; Place full serving cups onto a heat proof surface. Make sure you have a glass dome that will fit over everything and seal it completely. Place the cinnamon sticks into an ovenproof bowl and light it using the kitchen torch. Cover the eggnog and cinnamon sticks with the dome, the fire will go out and the smoke will fill the dome. Let it dissipate completely before opening. Drink immediately.
