Ingredients
- 1 quart eggnog
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 50 leaves mint
Garnish
- mint leaves
- sugared cranberries optional (see notes)
Instructions
- Pour one cup of eggnog into a medium saucepan and add the white chocolate chips. Heat to just simmer and stir until the chips are all melted. Turn off the heat.
- Add the mint leaves to the eggnog mixture and let steep for 15 minutes; strain the mixture into a measuring cup with a pour spout.
- Pour the remaining eggnog into a blender. Turn blender on low and run while adding the white chocolate eggnog mixture. Scrape the white chocolate from the measuring cup if necessary; it will want to harden once it starts to cool off.
- Blend on high for just a minute; this is to thoroughly incorporate the white chocolate into all of the eggnog mixture. Chill until cool.
- Pour into ice filled glasses and garnish with a mint sprig.
Notes
About those sugared cranberries; I honestly already had them ready for something else and thought they would be pretty but they are not absolutely necessary for this drink.
