Pumpkin Spice Eggnog
Our seasonal Pumpkin Spice Eggnog is my new favorite twist on the classic. It’s creamy, thick, and better than anything you can get at the store.

Pumpkin Eggnog is the fall staple you didn’t know you needed.
I love any excuse to eat eggnog before Christmas, and I may even like this pumpkin spice eggnog even more than our traditional eggnog! Both are liquid gold, easy to make and taste so much better than store-bought. If you don’t think you like eggnog, then you haven’t had it homemade.
How to make Pumpkin Spice Eggnog:
Simmer Milk: In a medium saucepan add sugar, cream, milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg and salt then stir. Cook over medium heat until mixture reaches a bare simmer.
Temper Eggs: Whisk egg yolks in a medium bowl. Scoop a ladle-full of the hot milk mixture and slowly drizzle it into the egg mixture, while stirring, to gradually heat the eggs. Repeat with another spoonful of simmering milk.
Combine: Add egg mixture to saucepan on the stove then whisk for a few seconds, until it reaches 160 degrees F on a thermometer. Remove from heat then stir in vanilla (and alcohol, if using). Pour the eggnog through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher or other container, cover and refrigerate until chilled. If you’d like a thinner eggnog, stir a little extra milk in before serving.
Serve pumpkin spice eggnog with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top, if desired.
