Ingredients
 

  • 1 12 oz can evaporated milk
  • 1 13.5 oz can coconut milk
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup cream of coconut like Coco López
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup white rum adjust to taste or omit for a non-alcoholic version
  • Cinnamon sticks for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Blend It All Together:
  • In a blender, combine evaporated milk, coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, cream of coconut, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Blend until smooth and well mixed.
  • Add the Rum:
  • Pour in the rum and blend again for a few seconds. Taste and adjust the amount of rum or spice if needed.
  • Chill:
  • Transfer the coquito to a glass bottle or mason jar. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours—overnight is even better for the flavors to blend.
  • Serve:
  • Shake well before serving. Pour into small glasses and garnish with a cinnamon stick or a pinch of ground cinnamon on top.

Notes

Store Coquito in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake or stir well before serving.
