- Lastly, add your bottle of rum. Once you’ve added everything and whisked well.
- Strain the liquid using a large mesh strainer to get out any clumps of cinnamon or nutmeg that didn’t break down.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. If you can refrigerate overnight, it’ll taste even better.
- Once ready to serve, garnish your glass with a cinnamon sugar rim and a cinnamon stick.
- If you're pouring this into bottles to give to friends as a holiday present, add one cinnamon stick to the bottle.
Notes
Make this a vegan coquito by replacing the dairy based evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk to coconut evaporated milk and coconut sweetened condensed milk
