Booze Budget

Alcohol is usually tucked into the “food” section of your budget (if budgeted for at all), but buying drinks is often the most expensive aspect of going out or just hanging out at home with friends. Stop overspending when you’re out on the town by taking a good look at how much you really spend on drinking, and start accounting for your wine, beer and cocktails in your daily spending plan.

Coquito de Leila

Andrea, our resident native Puerto Rican, swears that the traditional Puerto Rican holiday drink- Coquito- blows eggnog right out of the water! Its name literally means “little coconut” so it’s no surprise that it’s base is made with coconut milk, whole milk, cinnamon, eggs, and rum. Everyone in PR makes it. Each family has their own special twist on this holiday classic, and although they all share in their delicious, tropical, rummy taste, Andrea promises her cousin Leila’s Coquito recipe is the bomb!
