3/4 cup dark rum
7 ounces egg whites (6-7)

Put the yolks and sugar in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with whisk attachment; whip until pale yellow ribbons form, 5-7 minutes.
Add the cognac, bourbon, and rum, whip well, scrape down the sides, and mix again. Transfer the mixture to a 6-qt bowl.
In separate, clean mixer bowl, whip the egg whites and salt until very stiff peaks form. Fold into eggnog mixture.
Wipe out the mixer bowl, pour in the cream and vanilla, and whip until very stiff peaks form. Fold this into the eggnog mixture. Add the milk and whisk until smooth, 3-5 minutes.
Chill, garnish with nutmeg (and cinnamon, in our case!) and enjoy!
