Why not chicken

Hey - I happen to like chicken more than turkey. I baste turkeys well and it tastes good - but I like chicken. Keep the ham - gives me headaches.

Happy holidays and here's a great recipe for those who like egg nog - spanish egg nog Coquito! Enjoy!
1cup coconut milk
1 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 cup evaporated milk
1 cup white rum, or to taste
1 cup water
3 cinnamon sticks
4 egg yolks, well beaten ground cinnamon for garnish

How to make Coquito

Combine all of the milks and the rum in a blender or a food processor. Set aside. Boil the water with the cinnamon sticks. Cool to room temperature. Discard the cinnamon sticks.
Combine all of the ingredients except the ground cinnamon and beat well in a blender or food processor in batches. Pour the eggnog into glass bottles and refrigerate until ready to use. To serve, transfer the eggnog to a punch bowl and sprinkle the cinnamon on top.
