This twist on tres leches cake can be shaken up in no time with store-bought pound cake. Caribbean milk punch is a silky, booze-forward drink studded with grated coconut—an eggless eggnog you can drink year-round without shame. This recipe is courtesy of Zeke Goodwin, a Toronto-based food stylist and pastry chef. And if you have the time, bake the marble cake, too!

Ingredients

  • 1 store-bought marble pound cake, (or homemade version, see below)

Cocktail

  • 3 oz sweetened condensed milk

  • 3 oz 35% cream

  • 2 oz rum

  • 1 1/2 oz bourbon

  • 1/2 tsp grated nutmeg

  • 1 500-mL tub whipped topping

  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut, toasted
