Irish Coquito: A Recipe for a Boozy Christmas

An island drink
Gift it…or drink it all. Not judging

Christmas is coming up and for me that means making a bunch of bottles of my favorite alcoholic treat, coquito or island egg nog.  If you have no idea what that is, I used to live in St. Croix in the Virgin Islands and in December every restaurant, bar and island grandma competes for the best recipe.

Be trendy: Use Cauliflower

It's trendy
Cauliflower rice, rice baby. So good. So good.

OK, so you started dating someone new and they’re (dramatic music) VEGAN! Don’t panic, we’ve got you, this cauliflower rice side will impress any cow kisser.

With no cheese and no meat it’s exactly what you need to go with that slab of tofu and that pile of hot spinach.

Leah and I teamed up together to become the best Enthusiastic Eaters, refining our taste bud muscles to supplement our previous training when we lived in Seoul as professional Korean BBQ Pursuers.
