Smoked Poblano & Manchego Mac 'n' Cheese When I was living in Charleston, South Carolina, before living in a van full time, I did some side gigs outside my regular cooking job. I once did a chef takeover at this super-cute wine and tapas bar downtown, serving a menu of my creation. My menu that night was three different kinds of mac 'n' cheese and I called the menu "macnage à trois." Get it? Three dishes. Sexy food. I'll wait here.

Coquito is a divine, creamy coconut rum drink from Puerto Rico. I wanted to take the creaminess a step further by adding avocado, and topping it with miso caramel to give it a sweet/salty touch. I omitted the alcohol to keep this as a mocktail, but feel free to add some rum. This would be excellent as a dessert drink, as it is on the heavier side.
