  • Whisk the mixture continuously until it is heated through but not boiling.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Notes

For the best flavor, ensure the cashews are thoroughly soaked as this helps them blend smoothly, contributing to the creamy texture of the eggnog. Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less maple syrup, and feel free to experiment with different plant-based milks for varied flavor profiles.
