COQUITO



Coquito image

Coquito may translate to little coconut, but this boozy drink is big on coconut flavor. Traditionally served around Christmas, this holiday drink originated in Puerto Rico and is made with rum, coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk and spices. It's delicious served very cold, with a dusting of fresh nutmeg on top.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 15-ounce can cream of coconut, such as Coco Lopez
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
One 12-ounce can evaporated milk
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk beverage
1/2 cup white rum
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, plus more for serving
Cinnamon sticks, for serving

BASIC COQUITO



Basic Coquito image

For years, my family and I have been searching for a good, traditional-tasting coquito recipe. After having tried the whole egg yolk thing, simply adding ingredients to regular eggnog, and others, I found the best-tasting to be the most basic. This recipe ensures everyone at the party gets a taste, but you may want to double the recipe, because most will not settle for just a shot's worth.
