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

Coquito literally translates to “Little Coconut” 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 “Puerto Rican Eggnog” even though it doesn’t contain eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coquito de Oreo has all of the traditional flavors of coconut coquito with the rich, chocolatey flavor of Oreo cookies. It is absolutely delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is believed that coquito originated in the 19th century after condensed milk was introduced in Puerto Rico. It is not clear who made the first coquito but the first published coquito recipes were in the Puerto Rican cookbooks \u201cCocine a Gusto\u201d and \u201cThe Puerto Rican Cookbook,\u201d between the years 1950 and 1970. After this, coquito’s popularity took off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients for making coquito de Oreo:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The ingredients for coquito may vary by recipe but the main components are coconut milk, coconut cream and rum. Making coquito is quite similar to making limber de coco<\/a><\/strong>, another popular Puerto Rican treat! P.S. I’m convinced I have the BEST limber de coco recipe in the world, be sure to check it out. But let’s get back to this coquito de Oreo…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This version adds Oreo cookies, and cocoa powder for a richer chocolatey flavor! It tastes similar to cookies and cream ice cream. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TIP: Add a scoop of cookies and cream ice cream to bring this coquito to another level!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
