Egg-fu Nog for You and Yours
Eggs just don’t seem like something that you should ever drink. Thus, I have never tried egg nog, not even in my lacto-ovo meat-atarian days; and thus, I have no clue what it is supposed to taste like and how one would go about making a vegan version.
So if you so desire to knock-off this interesting holiday beverage, creating a salmonella-free version, then please direct your attention to Compassion Over Killing’s recipe:
COK’S EGG-FREE EGG NOG
for 5 servings:
* 1 qt soymilk
* 6 oz tofu, extra firm
* 6 tbs maple syrup
* 1/4 cup Amaretto, Southern Comfort, brandy, alcohol of choice …
* 2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
* 1/2 tsp cardamom
* 1/4 tsp nutmeg
* 1/4 tsp ground clovesIn a blender, combine all of the ingredients and blend until creamy and smooth. Chill before serving.
This photo shows a drink of the noggy inspiration sprinkled with nutmeg and stirred with a cinnamon stick. Check out this and COK’s other holiday vegan tasties.
