OPTIONAL: In a large pitcher with a lid (or two large jars with lids - this will make about 56 oz of liquid total) add rum, cinnamon sticks, and optional raisins (if using). Let sit for at least 1 hour, or up to a week. (This will add an extra depth of flavor to your coquito.)

In a blender, puree all the other ingredients. Pour into the bottle and shake well to combine with rum/raisins mixture.

Chill for at least 4 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld and coquito to thicken. (The coconut cream will thicken as it chills.)

Store in airtight container in refrigerator for up 6 weeks. Shake vigorously each time before serving!
