Roselyn Sanchez shares her favorite holiday traditions, including a recipe for Coquito, a traditional Christmas drink from Puerto Rico and parts of the Caribbean.
Coquito meaning “Little Coconut” in Spanish is a traditional Christmas drink that originated in Puerto Rico. The coconut-based alcoholic beverage is similar to eggnog, hence it is sometimes called Puerto Rican Eggnog. As a close sister island to theUS Virgin islands it is only natural that there would be a version created with a little local love as well.
Is it Coquito Season Yet?
Coquito or also known as the Puerto Rican Eggnog is a refreshing and tropical drink with a twist made primarily of sweetened condensed milk, coconut milk, cinnamon, nutmeg and rum. Rich, creamy, sweetened coconut rum drink! Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend for about a minute. – Excerpt from: https://www.africanbites.com/coquito/
