Step 1
Combine the first 6 ingredients, through orange zest, in a medium sauce pan. Bring to a gentle simmer, do not boil. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring often to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool for 20 minutes, stirring often to stir in coconut fat.
Step 2
When cool enough to handle, strain through a fine mesh strainer. Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
Step 3
At this point you can either add your desired amount of rum to a cocktail glass with ice and top with the coquito mix, or add your desired amount of rum to the whole batch of coquito mix. Keep refrigerated for up to 10 days.
Step 4
To serve, grate a bit of fresh nutmeg onto the top of your cocktail and garnish with cinnamon sticks and orange slices. Enjoy!
