In a medium saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Let the sugar syrup cool completely, then stir in the fresh lemon juice, vanilla extract, and eggnog.
Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer.
Every 30 minutes, scrape the sorbet with a fork to create a icy, crystalline texture. Repeat this process 3-4 times until fully frozen.
Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly and make it easier to scoop. Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg or vanilla powder.
