How to make Pumpkin Spice Eggnog:
Simmer Milk: In a medium saucepan add sugar, cream, milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg and salt then stir. Cook over medium heat until mixture reaches a bare simmer. Temper Eggs: Whisk egg yolks in a medium bowl. Scoop a ladle-full of the hot milk mixture and slowly drizzle it into the egg mixture, while stirring, to gradually heat the eggs. Repeat with another spoonful of simmering milk. Combine: Add egg mixture to saucepan on the stove then whisk for a few seconds, until it reaches 160 degrees F on a thermometer. Remove from heat then stir in vanilla (and alcohol, if using). Pour the eggnog through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher or other container, cover and refrigerate until chilled. If you’d like a thinner eggnog, stir a little extra milk in before serving. Serve pumpkin spice eggnog with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top, if desired.
