It’s time to raise a glass to the Coquito, the creamy, coconut, boozy holiday concoction that originated in Puerto Rico. A traditional Christmas drink, Coquito—which means “little coconut” in Spanish—is often called Puerto Rican eggnog, though few recipes actually include egg.

The basic Coquito typically calls for rum, coconut milk and coconut cream with spices and flavorings such as vanilla and cinnamon, although recipes vary. The result is a rich, decadent delight that can pack a serious punch depending on the amount—and proof—of the rums used.

Coquitos have been more prominent in the media this year: Coconut milk/cream supplier Goya has made a big push for the Coquito by promoting its ingredients for the holiday beverage in a number of advertisements. Rum giant Bacardi in November launched a ready-to-drink Coquito product; Coquito Trigo is another RTD currently on the market.

La Concha Resort in San Juan, Puerto Rico, offers a “build your own style” North Pole Coquito Nog, created on a traditional base of Barrilito 3 Star rum, Bacardi Oakheart spiced rum and house-made Coquito mix. Guests can add an optional flavor of pistachio, peanut butter or dulce de leche.

But many people and places stick to their own recipes, often handed down from family members. Here are a few Coquito options recently shared with Cheers.
