RHODE ISLAND
A note from the producer: An old family recipe passed down to me from my grandmother, Juana Sanchez. Coquito has always had a presence in my family; many debates came from who could make the best Coquito. It could be my uncle vowing that coconut flakes were a necessary ingredient. Or, my aunt saying, “Coquito isn’t complete without a freshly cracked raw egg in the blender.” In the end, there are only three ingredients that truly matter in Coquito: Rum, Coconut Cream, and an island full of love.
