Is homemade eggnog safe? It is if you spike it and wait 3 weeks.

Science Friday has a video showing what happens when eggnog is spiked with booze.
Check it out: http://www.sciencefriday.com/program/archives/201012244

Cheers,

Yes it's safe to drink within normal time periods.  No, you can't keep it for three weeks even if you spike it, the alcohol will not kill the bacteria.  But hey, you can go ahead and try it, please report back your findings...after you get out of the bathroom...at the hospital.   :duh:

Everything in life is safe, until one little moment that it's not.  :thumb:
