Coquito

This coconut style Puerto Rican twist on Eggnog is all you need for a very merry holiday!
Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 1 can 12 oz can evaporated milk
  • 1 can 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 can 15 oz can cream of coconut (like Coco Lopez)
  • 1.5 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup white rum
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon (or put a stick into each glass)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg (optional)

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a blender and blend well. I use my Ninja to make this, because the Cream of Coconut needs to be well blended.

  • Since you are starting with only one cup of white rum, you may add more to taste; the flavor of the rum gets stronger the longer the drink marinates, so I only use 1 cup.
  • Keep in the fridge for 4-6 months in an airtight container.

  •  If the coquito has a little fat layer at that top after sitting in the fridge, stir and shake to reblend. The fat separation of coconut milk is normal.
