Coquito

Coquito

This silky, creamy, sweet coconut-rum beverage is a holiday tradition in Puerto Rico. There are as many ways to make it as there are secret family recipes. This easy version is adapted from Illyanna Maisonet (@eatgordaeat), the first Puerto Rican food columnist in the U.S. To make a virgin coquito, substitute more coconut milk for the rum.

Cocktails are mixed up by Applegate employee Jenny Burns

6-8 Servings | Total Time: Less Than 15 Mins

  • 16 oz (2 cups) canned coconut milk, shaken well
  • 1 (15-oz) can sweetened cream of coconut

  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • Pinch of salt
  • 12 oz (1½ cups) white rum, or to taste
