Spiced Almond Milk Eggnog - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    24 large eggs
    2 cups almond milk
    2 cups cognac
    2 cups sherry wine
    1/4 cup freshly grated nutmeg, plus more for garnish
    2 cups spiced simple syrup
    FOR THE SPICED SIMPLE SYRUP
    2 cups sugar
    2 cups water
    12 cinnamon sticks
    1 tablespoon allspice berry
Preparation
    FOR THE SIMPLE SYRUP:
    Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar has dissolved completely. Remove from heat and allow to steep at least 4 hours, up to overnight. Strain out solids. Syrup will keep, refrigerated in an airtight container, for 4 weeks.
    FOR THE EGGNOG:
    In a blender, or using an immersion blender, blend together eggs, almond milk, and simple syrup until thoroughly emulsified.
    Stir in cognac, sherry, and nutmeg. Refrigerate eggnog, stirring occasionally, at least 4 hours and preferably overnight. If eggnog breaks, re-blend just before serving.
    Serve cold in punch cups, garnished with freshly grated nutmeg.
