Fights on Fox for Christmas

I feel a Miles record must have been shattered with that... except his droning soliloquies were rarely about boxing.

Kudos on representing Saddo boxing on a night when most of us were busy drinking "coquito" (the superior, Puerto Rican version of eggnog) and eating roast pork.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year... in case I party (family) too hard and forget to log on during those days.

Hey thanks bud appreciated. I'm just a guy who likes watching fights who can def talk too much . RBRs are not what they once were pre app days but glasses up to anyone dropping in or taking anything from fight night rambles. More the merrier

We managed some Korean bbq. And too many deviled eggs but need to get our hands on some 'coquito' maybe for the New year.

Ahh... you won't regret it, my friend. Coquito is absolutely top-notch stuff. It should be made correctly, though.

There are many recipes out there on the Internet. But I guarantee if you use my wife's recipe you'll make a coquito that'll get you hooked.

See below:

(4) cans evaporated milk
(2) cans Coco Lopez (cream of coconut)
(1) can condensed milk
apx. 3/4 of a 750 ml bottle of white rum (adjust to taste)
apx. 1 tsp vanilla
sprinkle cinnamon to taste


Some recipes say dark rum... but to me that's a mistake. Dark rum and spiced rum add a different flavor to the coquito and you'll have conflicting flavors.
Same goes for our local moonshine (called "pitorro" or "ron caña").
Pitorro on its own is delicious... sort of like a super aged sweet bourbon.
But using it to make coquito is a mistake. Better to just go with a good white rum.


I imagine some stores in the U.S. stock coquito. Probably those with a significant Hispanic population. But those off-the-shelf coquitos don't hold a candle to the well made homemade version.


Enjoy!
