You make this look easy — I’ll see if I have time to squeeze it in this weekend!
It took me less then 5 minutes to whip up a batch! Super easy!
I love egg nog, so I’m looking forward to trying this.
Do you think it wou,d work with light coconut milk? If so what would the calori be?
I’m going to make this for our family gathering. We have never had this before. When do you serve it?
Thank you – I will make this for our family gathering. We have nev3r had this before. When do you serve it?
I would go with the full fat coconut milk Anne, it is less processed and better for you. That being said, if you choose to use light coconut milk, I am sure it would work out fine. I would serve it chilled before dinner, sort of like an appetizer, but you could serve it anytime. Hope you and your family enjoy it.
Halle – How much water? It’s not in the ingredient list. Thanks
I too am wondering about the water. It’s not listed in the ingredients list. Too bad that I just put it all together before I noticed that…
