1/4 cup Lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
1 Dash ground cloves


Recipe

Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until frothy. Mix in the orange and lemon juices, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.

COMMENTS: Ginger ale, spices, and citrus juices enliven old-fashioned eggnog, making a fabulously refreshing and lighter variation.
