Coffee Coquito

Jump to recipe

<p>Some flavors evoke tradition, while others awaken new sensations. This delicious <em>Coffee Coquito</em> combines the best of both worlds: the warmth of classic Puerto Rican <em>coquito</em> and the irresistible aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The result is a creamy, sophisticated drink, perfect for toasting during the holidays. The secret to its charm lies in GOYA® <a href="https://www.goya.com/en/products/goya-cream-of-coconut/">Cream of Coconut</a> and GOYA® <a href="https://www.goya.com/en/products/coconut-milk-goya/">Coconut Milk</a>, which provide a smooth texture, a tropical touch, and that authentic flavor that makes every sip a celebration. You can prepare it in advance and keep it refrigerated, ready to enjoy anytime. Serve it chilled in small glasses and garnish with chocolate covered espresso beans to enhance its elegance. With its balanced blend of coconut, coffee, and rum, this coquito is much more than a drink; it’s an invitation to savor the spirit of the season.</p>
