Punch de creme is the Caribbean's version of Eggnog. There is even a song about drinking punch de creme on Christmas morning. This thick, creamy, rummy beverage is very popular in Trinidad and Tobago but most of the other Caribbean countries have their own versions.

As a tip, make the punch de creme at least 24 hours before you serve it so that the flavors can really meld together and the drink be properly chilled.

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 2 limes (or lemons, zested)
  • 4 1/2 cups evaporated milk (full fat/whole)
  • 1 3/4 (14 ounces) cans condensed milk
  • 1 cup dark rum
  • 2 teaspoons Angostura Bitters
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps to Make It

Break the eggs into a large bowl.

Add zest to eggs and beat with hand mixer until the eggs are frothy.

Pour in evaporated and condensed milk and rum. Add bitters and nutmeg and beat until well blended and everything is incorporated.

Strain and pour into distilled bottles, cork and chill.

Serve over ice.
