Definition
Plural of coquina; multiple deposits or samples of shell-composed sedimentary rock, or multiple small edible clams of the genus Donax.
Etymology
Plural of 'coquina,' also referring to small clams found in coquina deposits along beaches, which can be boiled together to make a broth.
Kelly Says
Coquina clams are tiny (about an inch long) and come in wild colors—purple, pink, yellow—and they live in massive colonies in wet sand. Historically, beach communities made 'coquina broth' from them, which was considered both delicious and medicinal, turning beach debris into soup.
