Eggnog rum sauce

Eggnog is a traditional beverage of European origin, specifically linked to English and colonial recipes that later became popular in Latin America and the Caribbean. In different Latin American countries, this drink is also known as "rompope" in Mexico, "clericot" in some regions of the Caribbean, or simply "eggnog" in countries like Colombia and Venezuela. Its preparation and varieties vary, but it is always characterized by containing egg, milk, sugar, and some type of liquor, commonly rum or brandy. This beverage is mainly consumed during the Christmas season and at special celebrations due to its sweet and creamy flavor.

Over time, rum eggnog sauce has become a delicious alternative to accompany desserts, allowing one to enjoy the essence of eggnog in different forms. This sauce combines the tradition of eggnog with a smooth and creamy texture that enhances the flavor of pies, ice creams, and other typical sweets.

How to Make Rum Eggnog Sauce

To begin, in a 4-cup glass container, mix the eggnog and cornstarch until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.

Heat in the microwave uncovered on high power for 4 to 5 minutes, until the mixture boils and thickens, stirring twice to prevent sticking.

Cover and let the mixture cool slightly.

Refrigerate until cold.

In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until soft peaks form.

Incorporate the rum or brandy into the whipped cream.

Gently fold this mixture into the eggnog mixture until it is homogeneous.

Finally, refrigerate the sauce until serving time to enjoy it well-chilled and at its best texture.
