Blue Milk Eggnog
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 star anise
- 5 whole cloves
- 4 large egg yolks
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
Blue food coloring
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Step 1: In a large saucepan over medium high heat, add the milk, cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves. Bring to a low simmer, then remove from heat and set aside.
Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks, sugars, and vanilla. Temper the eggs by slowly whisking in the hot milk mixture, a ladle at a time until fully incorporated.
Step 3: Pour milk back into the saucepan. Over medium low heat, simmer while whisking for 2 to 3 minutes, or until just thickened.
Step 4: Strain the milk to discard the cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves.
Step 5: Stir in the coconut milk, blue food coloring, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Step 6: Refrigerate overnight. Serve cold.
