As a kid once I started seeing eggnog in the stores, it was officially the holiday season. We wouldn’t but it all the time because it was loaded with fat and sugar. And mom would always thin it down with more milk to cut down on the calories and to make it last longer.I still crave eggnog as we get closer to Christmas. Luckily, it’s pretty easy to make a keto, sugar free version of eggnog. Keto eggnog is a combination of cream, and/or nut milk, egg yolks and your favorite sweetener.
