So Christmas vacation has always been my personal all time favorite Christmas movie. I especially love the scene where Clark loses it and dunks his moose cup in that big punch bowl of egg nog and says: “it’s good, good, good… it’s good.” That bowl of egg nog always left an impression on me, I am a huge fan of egg nog and I decided it was finally time to make my own homemade egg nog… I’m serious clark!

Remove from stove and let cool for 10 minutes. Add your vanilla extract and liquor and stir together.
Once egg nog has cooled to room temperature, strain through a fine mesh strainer. cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Egg nog will keep for 5 days.

Notes

It is important to space your spoonfuls out and do not stop mixing with your whisk or fork as you add your spoonfuls. For the liquor I typically use Southern Comfort, but rum will also work
