Tricky when homemade (the only kind) and has eggs in it, w/o which, I guess, it would not be eggnog.
eggnog freeze
regardless of whether the food is store bought or homemade, most everything can be frozen. i have never attempted to freeze homemade nog. i made it once and decided it was easier and just as festive and holidayish to pick it up while right next to it getting milk.
i buy a bunch every season to have throughout the year and i freeze them. right now i have three left over from last year still frozen. unlike milk, nog doesn’t change in taste or texture. if in a plastic jug pour out a 1/4 cup or so to leave room for expansion. if in a cardboard carton, just put it in the freezer unopened: the expansion isn’t enough to burst it and the flavor won’t last. i do the same with apple cider. just have to plan ahead, take it out the night before.
Do you think it would be a good idea to freeze eggnog in ice trays to use later for coffee drinks?
