Coquito bites are made with coconut cookies, rum and are coated in coconut flakes. They taste just like coquito<\/a><\/strong> and make the perfect holiday treat! These no-bake coconut rum balls are also great for gifting, so keep this recipe handy during the holiday season!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is coquito?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Coquito literally translates to \u201cLittle Coconut\u201d in Spanish. It is a traditional holiday drink that originated in Puerto Rico. It is served from Thanksgiving through Christmas and sometimes up until Three Kings Day in January. This coconut cocktail is similar to eggnog and is often referred to as \u201cPuerto Rican Eggnog\u201d even though it doesn\u2019t contain eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My coquito recipe<\/a><\/strong> is TOP NOTCH! It’s dairy-free and vegan and a must during the holiday season. Thousands of people have requested my coquito recipe after it went viral on social media and have raved about how delicious it is. Check out my viral coquito video<\/a><\/strong> here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients for coquito bites:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coquito bites are made with many of the same ingredients used for making coquito. Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves give these Caribbean coconut rum balls that distinct flavor found in Puerto Rican coquito. DELICIOUS!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes I use Pumpkin Pie Spice Blend which combines cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. The perfect combination of flavors to make these coquito bites!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
