Coquito meaning “Little Coconut” in Spanish is a traditional Christmas drink that originated in Puerto Rico. The coconut-based alcoholic beverage is similar to eggnog, and is sometimes referred to as Puerto Rican Eggnog (though incorrectly, as coquito does not call for eggs). The mixed drink is made with Puerto Rican rum, coconut milk, cream of coconut, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, nutmeg, clove, and cinnamon.
And at a party if you see somebody you’d like to know better saying “Do you want a coquito?” probably gets a far better reception than “Do you want an eggnog?”

Pithy.
I never heard of that so I googled. It sounds very good.
This drink sounds delicious and way too easy to get drunk on.
