Questions

Can I make Coquito dairy-free?

Yes. The dairy in this entry is 12 oz evaporated milk, 14 oz sweetened condensed milk, 15 oz cream of coconut. Swap the evaporated milk for a plant-based version of the same product; the sweetened condensed milk for a plant-based version of the same product; the cream for full-fat coconut milk or an oat cooking cream. The richness shifts slightly, but the method does not change.

Can I halve or double Coquito?

Yes. As written it serves 8. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. To batch it for a crowd, multiply everything but add the ice only when serving.
