It’s eggnog season! But what if dairy isn’t your friend and you could do without the eggs? AckeeNog is a rich and creamy vegan eggnog! A blend of soy and coconut milks with warm spices and of course rum and brandy 😉

Lighter in body than its egg-rich inspiration, arrowroot may be added to give a fuller mouthfeel, much like in the Vegan Trini Style Peanut Punch (recipe here).

Servings 6 6oz cup

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Parboiled/Canned Ackee
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 2 cups Soy milk Unsweetened vanilla or plain
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Milk
  • 2 tbsps Arrowroot* optional
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 cup Brandy
  • 1/4 cup White Rum
  • 1/4 cup Spiced Rum
  • Splash Angostura Bitters
  • Pinch Salt
  • Nutmeg and Cinnamon to taste

Instructions
 

Method (If using arrowroot):

  • Blend ackee and sugar together till completely smooth.
  • Whisk together the arrowroot with just bit of water and set aside
  • Pour the blended ackee, soy and coconut milk into a small saucepan and place over medium heat.
  • Bring up to a simmer then add the arrowroot mix. Cook for a minute or two until the mixture thickens slightly but do not boil too long because the arrowroot will lose its thickening power.
  • Remove from heat and add the remaining ingredients.
  • Strain into a glass pitcher and chill at least overnight (it will develop a better flavour the longer it sits).
  • When ready to serve pour into glasses and grate more nutmeg over top.

Method (no arrowroot):

  • Blend ackee and sugar together till completely smooth. Then add the remaining ingredients and blend again.
  • Strain into a glass pitcher and chill at least overnight (it will develop a better flavour the longer it sits).
  • When ready to serve pour into glasses and grate more nutmeg over top.

Notes

*This drink is lighter in body than its egg rich inspiration. Using the arrowroot will give a more full bodied mouthfeel if that is desired.
Can be served warm if desired
