The Borinquen cocktail is a delicious and refreshing drink that has its roots in Puerto Rico. This tropical cocktail is perfect for sipping on a hot summer day or enjoying at a beach party. The name "Borinquen" comes from the indigenous Taino name for Puerto Rico, which means "land of the brave lord."

This cocktail typically consists of rum, coconut cream, pineapple juice, and lime juice. It's often garnished with a slice of pineapple or a maraschino cherry to add an extra touch of sweetness.

The origins of the Borinquen cocktail can be traced back to the vibrant nightlife scene in Puerto Rico. Rum has long been a popular spirit on the island due to its abundance and rich history in Caribbean culture. The addition of coconut cream gives this drink a creamy texture that balances out the tartness of the citrus juices.
