Recipe - Miss Normas Eggnog

MISS NORMA'S EGGNOG
1 Onepound box
confectioner's sugar (no,
*seriously*)
1 Dozen eggs
1 lg Bottle Myers Planters'
Punch Rum (or other Extra
Dark rum)
1 small Bottle peach or apricot
brandy (optional)
23 quarts milk/cream mix
(as rich or as lean as you
like)
Nutmeg and allspice to taste

Separate the eggs. Beat the confectioner's sugar and the egg yolks well
together: add half the bottle of Myer's rum and about half the nutmeg you
intend to use, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably
overnight. After refrigerating, add the rest of the rum, the milkcream
mix, and the apricot/peach brandy (if desired). (Also if desired, whip the
egg whites and fold into the finished mixture. But in my opinion this makes
it *too* bloody thick. To each his/her own.) Add the rest of the nutmeg and
serve. (NB: do not exceed a dosage of about 1 teaspoon of nutmeg for the
whole mix. One of the interesting things about working big city emergency
rooms at Christmastime was seeing how many people came in in a mild
hallucinatory state, but they had not "had that much to drink", or any
drugs. What they *had* had was the last glass of eggnog, the one that has
all the nutmeg sitting at the bottom of it...and nutmeg, over a certain
dosage, is a most effective hallucinogen. The essential oil, myristine, has
elements in it that are very close to the molecular structure of mescaline.
So a word to the wise. Shake your eggnog regularly.) D Courtesy of
