Eggnog – Dairy and Egg free

Credit for this recipe goes to MALK Organics. I was in luck to find their eggless eggnog at my health food store (Natural Grocers) here in Boulder, CO where I live.

More dairy and egg-free eggnogs are arriving at various stores; sadly, most of them taste so sickly sweet (this becomes very apparent when you break up with sugar and then everything tastes overly sweet) and use many preservatives and additives.

Inspired by the Malk Organics eggnog, here is a new recipe that tastes fabulous and only takes a few minutes to make.

If you can’t eat pecans, replace them with hemp seeds, almonds or cashews. If you are having a problem digesting nuts, try tigernuts (that’s what the original horchata was made from). I use the ones from Gemini Organics. In my cookbook, Cooking for Hormone Balance, on page 300, I cover how to home make various plant-based milks, including tigernut milk.

Add alcohol only for a special occasion and only in moderation. If you are dealing with Candida, omit alcohol altogether and enjoy the pure goodness of the drink.

To make it Candida-friendly, replace the maple syrup with stevia or monk fruit.

  1. Hi…I am interested in your “zinc supplement”. In all I have read there needs to be a balance btwn zinc&copper or it will be disturbing to body system!!! I wonder why u do not have copper?

  2. This is delicious! I substituted cashews, used raw honey, and added a couple heaping spoonfuls of coconut cream to give it some body (since it’s made with water it’s extremely thin without it). Yum. Adding this to my favorites. Made a great ‘carrier drink’ for my collagen powder today. Nice job, guys!
