Categories     Beverages

Time 30m

Yield 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 coconut
0.75 (750 ml) bottle rum, light or dark
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk, preferably Coco Lopez
1 (15 ounce) can cream of coconut, preferably Coco Lopez
2.5 (12 ounce) cans evaporated milk
2 large cinnamon sticks
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
ice cube, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Test each of the three eyes at stem end of coconut to see which is the softest. Then use an ice pick (or a screwdriver) and a hammer to pierce two of the eyes. Strain water through a fine sieve into a bowl, and reserve.
  • Place coconut on a rimmed baking sheet; bake for 15 minutes. Remove the coconut, carefully wrap it with a kitchen towel, and place it on a solid, stable surface. Hit the area around the eyes of the coconut forcefully with a hammer or kitchen mallet. Remove the hard shell. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the brown skin from the back of the coconut meat. Rinse flesh under cold running water. Finely grate coconut using a box grater. Transfer to a large glass measuring cup. Add reserved coconut water and rum; set aside.
  • Working in batches, in the jar of a blender, combine coconut milk, cream of coconut, condensed milk, evaporated milk, and coconut rum mixture; blend until combined. Pour all of the mix into a pitcher, and add cinnamon sticks. Refrigerate, covered, for up to 2 days. Just before serving, stir to combine. Serve over ice.

COQUITO (BORICUA STYLE)



Coquito (Boricua Style) image

This is the way Coquito has been made by my family in Puerto Rico for many years. Traditionally when guests arrive in a home during the holidays (which extend from the first of Dec. until the 15 Jan.), they are immediately offered this delightful, comfort beverage. It is prepared at least 12 hrs in advance, and chilled in the refrigerator, once it is ready to serve, it must be shaken vigorously. It is served in small (fancy, glass) cups or shot glasses, no more than 4 oz. at a time. Other typical holiday foods include, Arroz con Gandules (rice with pigeon peas), Pernil (roast pork), Pasteles (a dough made out of either green bananas, or cassaba, filled with delicious meat, and wrapped in banana leafs, basically a Puerto Rican tamale), Arroz con Dulce (a rice dessert), Tembleque (another sweet dessert)..... My wife buys inexpensive empty fancy bottles at a local bazzar, which she cleans thoroughly and then fills with Coquito, during the holidays she gives a bottle to our friends and relatives...Enjoy!, and remember not to drink and drive.
