The holidays are the time for a popular drink in Germany, time for egg liquor (contains alcohol). We found an old fashioned egg liquor recipe that is super easy to make. It can be a bit difficult to find this delicious liquor in the USA. That’s why we posted this recipe. Happy Cooking!

8 egg yolks
1 vanilla bean
500 ml milk

– Beat egg yolks very well in a bowl.
– Remove seeds from vanilla bean, add to egg yolks.
