Comments from olga :

Very easy to prepare. Not quite as rich as the traditional eggnog.

User Reviews:

This easy eggnog can easily be made a lactose-free eggnog by substituting the regular milk for lactaid or rice milk. I haven't quite tried it with soy milk, but it is a great alternative for us poor lactose intolerant folk.
