"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 cups whole milk
1/2 vanilla bean or 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 egg yolks
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Heaping 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons ginger powder
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups heavy cream

Directions:
Directions:
1. Bring milk to a simmer. While the milk is simmering, have the egg yolks and sugar ready in a separate bowl and using an electric mixer, whip them until they are light in color.
2. Once the milk has simmered, slowly temper the milk into the egg yolk mixture by gradually scooping in a little at a time until milk has fully combined with the egg yolk mixture.
3. Add vanilla bean.
4. Consistently stir for 10-15 minutes using a spatula in a low heat to prevent curdling. Do not boil. Look for a nappe consistency (coats the back of the spoon).
5. Strain through a fine mesh sieve in a metal bowl.
6. Place on ice water bath.
7. Add cinnamon, clove, ginger powder, nutmeg, rum/brandy, and heavy cream.
8. Store and serve as needed.
9. To finish, add extra whipped egg whites, alcohol, or more nutmeg as desired in a glass.
