I've never tried coquito, but it sounds damn good. As for egg nog, I used to like it, but now I'm not too big on it. I watched a friend of mine vomit up a batch of it during a night of particularly hard drinking. It was such a gross sight, it actually caused a second guy to vomit. That disabused me of the notion that drinking large volumes of egg nog was a good idea.

LMAO...Yes, it's very rich, a coupla glasses is my limit...your anecdote reminds me of the time that I got sick on tequila shots in the Navy...even the smell of it now makes me queasy.
