Ingredients:
- 12 eggs
- 5 cups whole milk
- 750 ml bottle of 10 Cane Rum (or dark rum)
- 1/2 lb superfine sugar
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree

Separate eggs. Place egg whites in the refrigerator. In a mixing bowl, beat yolks until creamy. Gradually add half sugar, beating at high speeds until thick. Stir in milk, rum, vanilla, cinnamon, and pumpkin puree. Place in refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours. Remove egg whites from the refrigerator and beat until soft peaks form. Add remaining sugar, beating into stiff peaks. Fold the chilled rum mixture into egg whites. Serve in a martini glass. Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg and a dollop of whipped cream.
