What better way to ring in 2013 than with a delicious drink? Like an eggnog without the eggs, a coquito is a creamy, spiced, and rum-spiked holiday beverage traditionally served in Puerto Rico.
To celebrate the new year, here's Bert Jansch's "The Bright New Year," from his 1969 album Birthday Blues.
Ingredients:
--1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
--1 32oz carton sweetened coconut milk
--2 tbsp. vanilla extract
--1 c. dark rum
--2 tsp. cinnamon
--2 tsp. nutmeg
--2 tsp. cloves
We used Venezuelan rum and Mexican-imported vanilla we picked up from El Mercado in San Antonio, TX.
Whisk all ingredients together vigorously in a large bowl. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until cold. Serve and enjoy!
