Vegan Eggnog

Eggnog is such a staple during the holiday season. I personally love eggnog and it’s one of the things I love to indulge in during the most wonderful time of the year. It’s just so comforting and rich. It just gives you all the holiday feels.

This Vegan Eggnog is no exception in making you feel like the holidays are upon us. Vegan Eggnog is just as creamy and rich as traditional eggnog. All while being a version that can be enjoyed by everyone.

Vegan Eggnog can be made with several different egg-free ingredients as the base. It still has milk, cinnamon, sugar and all the other ingredients traditional eggnog calls for. You can even add some rum for that adult eggnog we all enjoy.

Aside from how delicious and rich this Vegan Eggnog is, it’s also pretty nutrient dense. A much healthier version to a typical eggnog. Especially any store-bought one. So easy to make and comes together in very little time. Once you’ve had this amazing and tasty eggnog, it’ll be hard to go back.

What is Vegan Eggnog made of?

This Vegan Eggnog is made with oats which gives it that creamy and rich texture. Oats are cooked in water and then blended with the rest of the ingredients. The texture and taste in this eggnog are incredible. You will not miss the egg at all.

Why have Vegan as supposed to regular Eggnog?

This version of this delcious holiday beverage is great to indulge in for anyone who is vegan of course. It’s also great for anyone who has an egg allergy and can’t have traditional eggnog. Of course, there are also those who don’t like egg or those who don’t like the idea of drinking a drink that’s based off of eggs.
