Coconut Milk

Ingredients

• 2 cups shredded coconut (unsweetened and dried)
• 4 cups boiling water

Instructions

1. 1

   Add the shredded coconut and boiling water to a high-speed blender.

2. 2

   Blend on high until the coconut is puréed and the mixture seems well combined, for about 1 to 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Allow to cool and pour the mixture into a nut milk bag, a napkin, a cheesecloth, or even a fine-mesh strainer.

4. 4

   Squeeze all the liquid out of the coconut. Squeeze until you've extracted as much of the milk as possible.

5. 5

   Serve hot or cold.

6. 6

   Use the leftover pulp to make coconut flour or add it to your vegan protein shake, vegan milkshake, vegan donuts, or banana ice cream.

7. 7

   Keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-7 days and shake before use.
