This is really delightful and a great alternative to soy nog. I blogged about it here: http://laveganloca.blogspot.com/2008/12/raw-vegan-holiday-nog.html Thanks for the recipe!

I made this nog over the weekend - perhaps suffering from pumpkin spice soy nog withdrawls... i was dying for something noglike! i whipped this up, which takes no time in the vitamix. refrigerated it (well after taking a big swig!) and sipped on it that evening. Loved it! tasted very rich, creamy, and just sweet enough with the nutmeg and vanilla flavors mixed in! I just did a half batch b/c i knew husband would try it. Its not just like egg nog but a good substitute that i love! and extra points for how quick and easy it is too!!
