Coquito is a traditional Puerto Rican holiday beverage that is often enjoyed during the Christmas season. This creamy and sweet drink has a coconut base and is similar to eggnog, but it features coconut milk instead of dairy milk. The word "Coquito" translates to "little coconut" in Spanish.

Here is a basic recipe for Coquito:

Ingredients:
2 cans (about 27 ounces) of coconut milk
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
1 cup of white rum (or to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Optional: 1/2 cup of cream of coconut for extra sweetness
Instructions:

In a blender, combine the coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, rum, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Blend until well combined.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness and rum content according to your preference.
If you want a richer flavor, you can add cream of coconut to the mixture.
Pour the Coquito into bottles or a glass container, and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
Shake or stir the Coquito before serving, as it may separate during refrigeration.
Serve chilled, either over ice or on its own, garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg if desired.

Coquito is often shared among friends and family during holiday gatherings. It has a rich, velvety texture and a delightful combination of coconut and warm spices, making it a festive and comforting drink for the holiday season. Keep in mind that variations of the recipe exist, and some people may add unique twists, such as using different types of rum or incorporating other flavorings.
