- 3/4 cup whole pitted dates

Instructions

- Add the coconut milk, oat milk, maple syrup, vanilla, spices and salt to your blender (I recommend good quality blender). Drain the dates and add them in. Blend until smooth. Chill in the fridge.
- Serve cold in a hiball glass with a couple of ice cubes, sprinkle of cinnamon, tiniest pinch of nutmeg if you like and for a spiked eggnog add in an ounce of spiced rum, brandy or bourbon. A dollop of coconut whipped cream topping is lovely too. Enjoy with a Christmas cookie! For step by step photos see above post
Notes
- plant milk: can use any non dairy milk, like almond, soy or cashew but I prefer oat milk
- To store: leftover eggnog will keep in the fridge for up to a week in a sealed container. Shake well before using
- use a high speed blender for best results
