Coquito is popular throughout the United States with those of Puerto Rican heritage and is fast growing in popularity with everyone. The fact that such a federation exists speaks to the infamy of the drink. The contest is slowly spreading to other parts of the world, as well. Coquito is sure to be a hit with coconut fanatics, but anyone who likes to relax with a little sweetness after Christmas dinner is encouraged to try.
White rum is often the go-to, but there are benefits to using all kinds. Founder Don Facundo Barcardi bought land in Cuba and opened a distillery that would change the world of rum forever as he personally brought in the concept of purposeful aging and charcoal filtration systems.
Bacardi Superior has set the standard for flavor and balance in white rums. Its palate is smooth, light, and floral with notes of fruit, oak, ginger, coriander, and vanilla. This combination pairs exceptionally well with lime and mint, paving the way for many successful cocktails. Much like the palate, the aroma is light, floral, and fruity with notable hints of cherry and vanilla. Don Q Cristal is unique to other white rums with its multiple distillation system.
The extra time and effort results in a cleaner, more refined, and more delicate flavor profile than most. It also makes for a much smoother drink than other white rums in its bottom shelf price point. This is, in part, due to the one and a half to five years it spends aging in American white oak barrels.
This rum is also used as the base for many other Don Q rum products. My name is Aubrey. I am a busy lawyer and momma.

Home » Newest Recipes! Jump to Recipe Print Recipe. What does coquito mean? How long does coquito stay fresh? What alcohol is use in coquito? Course: cocktail. You may not drink alcohol or you may be serving minors. When making a virgin version of coquito I recommend substituting coconut milk for the rum and adding rum extract to taste.
Another reason I make my recipe without egg yolks is that it extends its shelf life. It should last in your refrigerator for 4 — 6 months. If your coquito has a little fat cap at that top that is completely normal. That is just the cream of coconut fat separating which is normal.
Give your coquito a poke and a good shake and you are good to go. If making a version that includes eggs it might not last as long so please do not apply this time frame to other recipes. But you have been warned all of these are incredibly addictive. Are you in search of even more Puerto Rican flavors? Visit my entire collection of Puerto Rican recipes.
Coquito without egg will last in an airtight container refrigerated for months. If some of the coconut fat solidifies let it sit on the counter for 10 minutes and give it a good shake before serving. To make a non-alcoholic version substitute coconut milk for the rum and add rum extract to taste.

Are you looking for more recipes? Love this recipe. This was my Christmas gift to my co-workers this year. Delicious, like all your recipes. Thank you so much for posting this and your other recipes. I did find Thai coconut cream, but not cream of coconut. Can I still use this?
Does that mean I should add sugar to this recipe? And if so, how much? You are correct that they are different products. Think evaporated milk vs. It will still be good if you do this just a different variation.
I cannot speak to measurements as I have not tested it. The best thing to do is to add the sugar and taste it as you go. Like your recipe. My familia prepares so many different ways. Took to work in Mason jars for my crew. This recipe is so delicious!!
Thank you for posting it. If you do want to make it ahead I would recommend you keep it in a cooler. Loved it! I just added a little bit more cinnamon and less rum!
Feels just like the one made back home. Thank you so much! I brought this to a gathering of friends. When I made it the first time I noticed the weird chunks too but if u sit the coconut cream in some hot water and let it melt then u wont get the weird chunks in it. Jacquelyn, I am also a Zayas. Thank you.
Muchisima gracias por la receta, I just made your Coquito and it is amazing. Is it supposed to be like that.? Looking though recipe and purchased the correct things. There should be no chunkiness. None of the products should be chunky. Those are two different products. Once whisked or blended it should be smooth. Did I mixed it too much? Not enough? Do I strain that off? Did I miss something? So what I think they, and myself, are trying to ask is how to make solidified Cream of Coconut liquid again, before adding to the rest of the recipe, without destroying the product or the recipe.
And since I can feel the question sitting in the air: the Cream of Coconut I used was never stored in a cold place, only dry room temp cabinets, before use. What can I do?
