Wow. The recipe that won Punch’s blind Eggnog tasting uses a split base of rum, cognac, and bourbon. I’ve done that for many years, more surprisingly though the recipe calls for PF 1840 and Old Grand Dad. I’ve been using Bonded Old Grand Dad, PF 1840, and OFTD for several years now. I also use a mix of whole milk and heavy cream. My recipe has minor differences, and I don’t pre batch, but otherwise they’re very similar. #Cocktails#Cocktail#Rum#Bourbon#Cognachttps://punchdrink.com/articles/best-eggnog-cocktail-recipe/
@noplasticshower the defining ingredient in the historic Baltimore recipes was Madeira, in larger quantity than rum or brandy, like the Harry Johnson recipe from 1882, but it looks like a lot of the recipes online these days omit it.
I was actually thinking yesterday of trying a little oloroso sherry mixed in with my cognac/rum/bourbon holy trinity.
