Creamy rum and milk punch - a Puerto Rican staple for Nochebuena!
By: Yaidy Santiago | @yaidymakes
Nochebuena—literally "Good Night"—is the night for many Latinos. Think Christmas Eve, but louder, longer, and packed with love, laughter, and legendary food. From roasting lechón to passing around abuelita’s pasteles, this night is about gathering with family and friends to eat, dance, and stay up way too late.
For many of us, it’s less about Christmas morning and more about the magic of the night before—sharing traditions passed down through generations, reconnecting with loved ones, and making space for anyone who wants to join in the fun. Join us in celebrating this special night and bring a little extra sabor to your holiday traditions!
We're excited to share this delicious sugar-free Coquito recipe that provides all the delicious nostalgic flavor with only quality ingredients. This Coquito can be made with or without alcohol, depending on the sort of night you're having. Hope you enjoy!
