Eggnog already feels indulgent, but adding a splash of rum turns it into a full-on grown-up dessert. This Spiked Eggnog Ice Cream with Rum made in the Ninja Creami is rich, smooth, lightly boozy, and exactly what you want when you’re craving something festive but frozen.
If you love eggnog season as much as I do, don’t miss my classic Eggnog Ice Cream for a simpler base. And if you’re in a dessert-first mood, Churro Ice Cream and Ube eggnog are both excellent side quests.

Why You’ll Love This Spiked Rum Eggnog Ice Cream
- Cozy holiday flavor with a real splash of rum
- No gums, pudding mix, or stabilizers
- Easy ingredients you can grab anywhere
- Perfect for a Deluxe 24 oz Ninja Creami pint
🛒Ingredients You’ll Need
- Eggnog – Full-fat gives you the best texture and flavor—just make sure it’s the non-alcoholic kind.
- Sweetened Condensed Milk – sweetness + creaminess in one
- Dark or Spiced Rum – just enough for warmth, not overpowering

How to Make Spiked Eggnog Ice with Rum Cream in the Ninja Creami
- Mix the base. Add eggnog, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla to a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Freeze. Pour into a Deluxe 24 oz Ninja Creami pint. Freeze flat for at least 24 hours.
- Spin. Spin on Ice Cream. The first spin may look crumbly — that’s normal.
- Respin + add rum. Make a small well in the center, add rum, then run Respin once or twice until creamy and smooth.
- Serve. Scoop and finish with nutmeg, whipped cream, or toppings of choice.
🍒Topping and Serving Ideas
- Freshly grated nutmeg on top
- Whipped cream (because why not)
- Crushed gingersnaps or vanilla wafers
- A drizzle of caramel sauce
👪Serving Size
This recipe is made for the Ninja CREAMi Deluxe, yielding 4 servings per pint.
If you’re using a standard 16-ounce Ninja Creami pint instead of the Deluxe 24-ounce, just use two-thirds of each ingredient. Think of it as filling the pint about the same way. Just a little less of everything.
🌀Tools You’ll Need
- Blender: Makes mixing ingredients effortless.
- Ninja CREAMi Deluxe 11-in-1 Ice Cream & Frozen Treat Maker: The star of the show, perfect for creating creamy, smooth ice cream.
- Ninja Creami Pint Container: The pint container is essential for freezing and churning your ice cream mix.
Recipe Tips and Troubleshooting
- Too soft after spinning? Freeze for 10–15 minutes, then scoop.
- Can I add more rum? I don’t recommend it. Too much alcohol = slushy texture.
- Want it less boozy? Reduce rum by half and add a splash of milk. You can also just use run extract.
Recipe FAQs
Yes. Alcohol softens the texture, which is great in small amounts but too much will prevent proper freezing.
No — this recipe contains alcohol. Try the classic eggnog version instead.
Dark or spiced rum adds warmth and depth. White rum works but is less flavorful.
