  • Author: Lana
  • Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
– 3 large eggs
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– 2 tablespoons cornstarch
– ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg or cinnamon (for flavor)


Instructions

To make the Super Nourishing Custard Drink, follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients and ensure your cooking space is clean and organized.
2. Whisk the Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until fully combined and creamy.
3. Add Vanilla and Salt: Stir in the vanilla extract and salt to enhance the flavor.
4. Mix the Milk and Cornstarch: In a separate pot, mix the milk and cornstarch, whisking thoroughly to dissolve the cornstarch.
5. Heat the Milk: Place the pot over medium heat and gently bring it to a simmer while stirring continuously.
6. Combine Mixtures: Once the milk mixture has warmed, slowly pour it into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
7. Return to Heat: Pour the combined mixture back into the pot and return to the heat.
8. Cook Until Thickened: Stir continuously for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens to custard consistency.
9. Incorporate Spices: Add nutmeg or cinnamon to the mixture for an extra flavor boost during the last minute of cooking.
10. Cool and Serve: Take off the heat and let it cool slightly before serving. You can serve it warm or chilled, depending on your preference.

This simple process ensures a decadent custard drink without the mess.
