Description

Fat-free eggnog is a lighter variation of traditional eggnog, a creamy and sweet beverage commonly used in desserts and festive preparations. Unlike classic eggnog, this fat-free version eliminates whole dairy or cream, using low-fat or alternative ingredients to maintain the smooth texture and characteristic flavor, but with fewer calories and saturated fats.

Its origin comes from traditional eggnog, a popular recipe in various cultures, especially in English-speaking countries during the Christmas season. In Latin American cuisine, this healthier version has been adapted for those looking to enjoy the flavor of eggnog without compromising their diet.

Properties: This light version of eggnog retains a good protein content thanks to the use of egg whites or substitutes, in addition to being low in saturated fats, making it ideal for people on low-fat diets or with dietary restrictions. It can also be a good source of calcium if fortified plant-based milks are used.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: In many countries, eggnog is known as rompope (Mexico, Central America), ponche crema (Caribbean), or simply ponche de huevo. The fat-free version could be called rompope light or ponche de huevo ligero.
