Sippin on some sizzurp...



Not actually, but it's so delicious it can cure any ailment if you ask me. So last month we asked our readers to let us know what they were all drinking for the holidays. Some named their favorite cocktails, wines and beers, I personally had the traditional puertorrican drink, the Coquito. It's like eggnog to the tenth degree. !!
Rich velvety, creamy, and full of flavor with hints of nutmeg and cinnamon, and a surprising kick of a smooth aged rum. Seemed perfect for the cold nights we're having this season.
So it starts off as an ice cream base would, whipping eggs on a double boiler, and warming up your cream with the above mentioned spices and vanilla. You incorporate the cream mixture to the egg mixture, then back to warm up until it nappes the spoon. Once cooled, it gets mixed with top shelf rum, toasted coconut flakes and quickly gets bottled and labeled. I happened to witness the making of this wonderful drink one night and purchased 2 bottles for my thanksgiving dinner. My friends and family were hooked immediately and they also placed their orders from the next batch for Christmas eve.
So whether you're drinking sangria, vino, beers or cocktails, it will always taste better surrounded by good friends and family.

If you would like to place and order or have any questions, feel free to contact at:
