Instructions

1. Warm the milk, cream and Pink Chai in a heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat until the milk starts to lightly simmer and gets steamy. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs together in a separate bowl with the sugar until frothy. Add about a quarter cup of warm milk into the eggs at a time, whisking until fully incorporated between each addition. Then return the mixture to medium heat and continue to cook, stirring continuously with a whisk, until thickened. It will take about 5 minutes. The mixture should reach the consistency of melted ice cream. Immediately pull the Pink Chai Nog off of the heat. Be sure not to leave it on too long because over cooking the eggnog could result in a broken scrambled egg-like sauce. As the Chai Nog cools, it will thicken up a bit more.
2. Have a fine mesh strainer handy over another container to strain out the chai spices.
3. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for up to 4 days. If drinking cold, and you like the froth, add some Pink Chai Nog into a cocktail shaker with ice and shake aggressively for 20 seconds. Pour into a rocks glass or a punch cup. Feel free to garnish with added whipped cream, a sprinkle of beet powder for color, some freshly grated nutmeg for traditional look, and/or a cinnamon stick. Add 1 ounce of bourbon for every 3 ounces of Pink Chai Nog for a tipsy drink.
