Would saffron be a good addition to eggnog?
Maybe without cinnamon so you can actually taste it. A honey saffron egg nog might work.
Nothing is a good addition to egg nog but egg nog is a good addition to the rubbish heap.
>>21712187I'm thinking of trying eggnog this Christmas season. I found this recipe from How to Drink, based on the Jerry Thomas recipe for Baltimore Eggnog:https://youtu.be/VUl99SUhA1c?si=30c7qFqRuqyPWqxw&t=536-2 eggs-22ml simple syrup-1/4tsp nutmeg (plus extra for serving)-30ml cognac-15ml rum-22ml madeira-150ml whole milk15 egg version (7.5x):-15eggs-165ml simple syrup-1.75tsp nutmeg (plus extra for serving)-225ml cognac-112.5ml rum-165ml madeira-1125ml milkThoughts?

>>21712187I hate eggnog but love saffron. I'd give it a try.
>>21712187>smoked sweet paprika>saffronLooks good if nothing else.
allspice might work but not saffron, no
>>21712187saffron has a very understated taste and eggnog is full of spices alreadyhow many hundreds of dollars of saffron would you need to get any flavor out of it in an eggnog without accidentally saffron poisoning yourself
>>21712187is there already rum in it? if no, add rum and then we’ll talk. if yes, who cares?
