Coquito is one of our favorite Puerto Rican drinks during the holiday season.
It is the traditional Puerto Rican drink that is usually served at Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. It’s creamy, sweet, and similar to eggnog (but has no egg in it), very easy to make and so good!

1 (15-ounce) can of cream of coconut
1 (13.5oz)can of Coconut milk
1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
1 (12-ounce) can of evaporated milk

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Ground cinnamon and cinnamon sticks
