Vegan Eggnog
Eggnog is one of my favorite Holiday drinks! I am so happy to share this recipe for Vegan Eggnog! This recipe is gluten free, dairy free and vegan which means there are NO eggs in this recipe. I cook with eggs but the thought of drinking raw eggs just makes me gag! Silk has a wonderful Vegan Eggnog available at the grocer but wouldn’t you like to make your own eggnog and not have to think about it sitting in grocers for months on end before being purchased??
This Vegan Eggnog is made from coconut milk, cashews and spices – how easy and healthy! Easy because this recipe is made in a blender making it nice and frothy and you are done! Healthy because it has cashews!
Cashews are one of the lowest-fiber nuts that are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They contain the vitamins E, K and B6. They pack minerals such as copper, phosphorus, zinc, magnesium, iron and selenium! Our body needs all these vitamins and minerals to function. One study even shows cashews reduce blood pressure and raise “good” cholesterol levels. So Cheers! And drink up this holiday season.
Photos below show easy it is to make this delicious holiday Eggnog! Recipe follows the photos. Enjoy!

My family loves egg nog.
Looks like a very nice recipe. Thank you!
Vegan EggNog is just what my taste buds need. Thank you.
Your welcome! I haven’t seen any in stores here in Key West yet that are dairy free. I’ll be making this soon.
I don’t remember the last time that I had Egg Nog! I’m going to make this. Thanks for the recipe!
Being Dairy Free it’s a must to make your own. Store bought doesn’t cut it.
Really need to make this during the holidays! I already have all of these ingredients.
Donna, Vegan Eggnog is one thing I really miss so making my own is yummy. Stores just don’t have right consistency or flavor.
This looks delicious. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Rita, It takes a bit to get use to cooking vegetarian but to me it’s much tastier 🙂

Good way to avoid salmonella, too!
I LOVE eggnog! I bet this is really creamy. Can’t wait to make it this winter!
Cant wait to try
I’d always thought cashews had a resin that required roasting, interesting!
They are already roasted when I purchase them. Here is a link to what I get https://amzn.to/47Fu5hJ
All the cashews I get say that they are roasted so I don’t have to roast them myself.
Nice recipe. Thanks for sharing.
