Coquito is a very important tradition in the Puerto Rican community. Everyone has their own recipe. And behind every recipe there’s always a grandmother or an aunt or an old town. The drink is usually made with coconut and rum, along with nutmeg, cinnamon and various secret ingredients, sometimes egg yolks, sometimes condensed milk. It can be thick and creamy, light and spicy, boozy, mellow, sweet or tangy.
