Coquitos with Ron del Barrilito

Author Notes

Calling all the coconut lovers out there! Coquito directly translates into "little coconut", and that's exactly the taste we are looking for this holiday season. Coquito is a traditional Puerto Rican drink that is typically had during the Christmas season.

However, what makes this recipe so special is Ron del Barriilito Two Stars. Anyone can make a Coquito, but it's the rum that makes it truly special. I've tried this recipe with many different brands of rum, and there is a clear winner. Ron del Barriilito Two Stars is the only rum I'll be drinking going forward. —Emily Smith
