If you've never had coquito, get ready for a good time because your holidays are about to take a tropical turn.

This Puerto Rican holiday drink doesn't use any eggs, but it does use plenty of coconut milk, coconut cream and rum to create a sweet, rich drink that is reminiscent of creamy, rich eggnog.

Combine evaporated milk, cream of coconut, sweetened condensed milk and coconut milk, add a dash each of nutmeg and cinnamon and top with your favorite rum.

Strain any lumps of coconut from the drink before chilling for at least an hour or up to overnight.

Before serving, taste for seasonings and don't be surprised if your eyes roll back in your head.

BONUS: Boozy hot chocolate
