as a puerto rican, coquito is soooo much better than eggnog!!! and i LOVE eggnog!! but they’re just so different it’s like comparing coffee and tea to me 😅 i can be in the mood for one but not the other you know?! such a great list! weirdly enough i love the gift giving ideas but i’ve seen many say something along the lines of how annoying they are or repetitive but i think they’re fun! i may not actually get what they suggest but it helps stimulate the ideas for someone? and i LOVE handmade items. so i think they’re super personable too?! love love love!!!!

Omg!!! I was first introduced to it by an ex who is puerto rican/cuban, so I was lucky enough to try some very good + authetic coquito. So fair on the coquito vs eggnog!

Totally! I also find them to be fun and great source for inspo–though I can see how it can be overwhelming to feel like you need to buy, buy, buy or have gift guide approved presents. Regardless, I still love window shopping them.

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it, your support means a lot <3 :)

That's amazing! Funny enough, I added it to the list because I made my parents one as a kid and they still have them :-) sounds like workshop will be a blast!
