Eggnog Recipe

In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they lighten slightly in color. While continuing to whisk, slowly add the sugar and continue to beat until it is completely dissolved. Set aside.

In a small saucepan over high heat, bring the water and cinnamon sticks to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the liquid is reduced to a cup. Strain off cinnamon sticks with a mesh sieve and set the liquid aside to cool.
