 Ingredients You’ll Need

• 6 eggs
  

• 1/2 cup Pride of India Rock Sugar, powdered
  

• 2 cups whole milk
  

• 1 cup heavy cream
  

• 1.5 tsp  Pride of India Ground Cinnamon
  

• 1/2 tspGround Nutmeg (optional)
  

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• A pinch of  Pride of India Himalayan Pink Salt
  

Directions

1. Whisk the Base: Separate the eggs. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with powdered rock sugar and a pinch of Himalayan salt until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.
2. Warm the Milk:  In a saucepan, gently heat the milk, cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Don't boil.
3. Temper the Eggs:  Slowly ladle a few tablespoons of the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling. Gradually pour the tempered yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Cook on low, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
4. Chill: Remove from the heat and strain into a bowl for a velvety finish. Stir in the vanilla extract and let it cool. 
5. Serve: Pour into glasses over ice, sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg, and enjoy this creamy festive beverage.
