This is the classic holiday eggnog made with cuatro leches Latin cream (why not?) and has my unique and personal touch inspired by an attempt to balance cultures and Latin flavors. I’m sure you’ll find this drink irresistible and so delicious you’ll be tempted to serve it as dessert.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Don’t stir the mixture while it’s cooling in the freezer, this way you’ll achieve more definition and different textures.
  • tip 2
    You can use the punch as a base for an eggnog panna cotta. Simply add gelatin to the mixture and let cool in the freezer.
  • tip 3
    The more it rests in the freezer the more taste and consistency you will have. Personally, I like preparing it a day or two in advance.
