Ingredients:
- 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess) ½ cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes) ¼ cup simple syrup (or honey/agave for a natural sweetener) ½ crushed ice 1 of Zest lime (for garnish) Lime slices and coconut flakes (optional
- for serving)
Preparation Steps:
Gather Ingredients
coconut milk, limes, syrup, ice
Squeeze the Limes
Juice fresh limes until you have ½ cup. Fresh is key for that tangy brightness.
Blend
In a blender, combine coconut milk, lime juice, simple syrup, and crushed ice. Blend until smooth and frothy.
Taste Test
Sip and adjust sweetness if needed. Add more syrup if you prefer it sweeter.
Chill and Serve
Let the drink rest in the fridge for 5 minutes for a more refreshing experience. Pour into chilled glasses, garnish with lime zest, slices, and coconut flakes.
