Preparation:

Step 1
• In a nonstick saucepan, combine 2 cups of milk, orange zest, and cinnamon. Heat over medium-high heat, just below a boil. Remove from heat and let steep for 30 minutes. Refrigerate the remaining milk.
Step 2
• Bring the milk mixture back to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and sugar together in a medium bowl. Gradually pour half the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Pour the hot egg mixture back into the milk and simmer the custard over low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 4 minutes. Do not allow the custard to boil. Strain the custard into a bowl. Discard the cinnamon and orange zest. Stir the vanilla into the custard and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate.
Step 3
• When ready to serve, froth the remaining cold milk with a frother or immersion blender and fold it into the custard. Serve the eggnog in mugs, sprinkled with cinnamon.
