Recipe: White House Egg Nog

When I worked for the Executive Office for OMB, we were invited to Christmas parties at the White House during the holiday season. I don't know if they still serve this recipe, but back in the early 80's, the eggnog was heavily spiked! Here is the official recipe, as we were given as employees at the time:

White House Egg Nog

1 gallon commercial eggnog
2 1/2 cups bourbon
1 2/3 cups rum
1 2/3 cups brandy
1 quart vanilla ice cream
vanilla extract and nutmeg, to taste

"You can mix the ingredients above and serve or you can mix everything together, except the ice cream, and then pour the mixture over the ice cream with vanilla and a sprinkle of nutmeg. Used by the White House staff during the entire Christmas season."
