Instructions

Rinse and quick soak raw cashews to soften, either in the microwave or on the stovetop. See notes below for directions.

Once the cashews are softened, drain the water, and transfer cashews to a high-speed blender.

Add remaining ingredients to the blender and blend until completely smooth and creamy. If your vegan eggnog is too thick, add more dairy free milk or water to thin it out.

Place vegnog in the refrigerator for a couple hours to chill. To serve, top with additional ground nutmeg and garnish with a cinnamon stick.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Soak Cashews Properly 💧
Soak raw cashews in hot water for at least 15 minutes (or overnight in cold water) to ensure they blend into a silky-smooth cream that mimics traditional eggnog's richness.
Toast Your Spices First 🌟
Lightly toast the cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a dry pan for 1-2 minutes before adding to intensify their warm flavors and create a more complex, authentic eggnog taste.
Blend in Two Stages ⚙️
First blend the soaked cashews with water until completely smooth, then add coconut milk and flavorings in a second blend to prevent over-processing and achieve the ideal creamy texture.
Balance Your Sweetness 🍯
Start with less maple syrup than you think you need and taste as you go—the spices will intensify as the eggnog sits, and you can always add more sweetness but cannot remove it.
Chill and Let Flavors Meld 🧊
Refrigerate your finished eggnog for at least 4 hours (or overnight) before serving to allow the spices to fully infuse and develop a deeper, more cohesive flavor profile.
