Colombian Limonada de Coco
One of my favorite treats in Colombia – a super-refreshing, icy cold coconut and lime smoothie.

- Yield: 3-4 1x
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 can of full-fat coconut milk, unshaken
- 1/3 c. freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 3 limes)
- 4 TBS sugar
- 1 1/2 c. ice cubes
Instructions
- Open the can of coconut milk and, if it has separated, use a spoon to scoop the heavier coconut cream off the top and into a blender. Then pour about half of the thinner coconut water into the blender. Reserve the rest of the coconut milk for another use. If the can has not separated enough such that you can scoop out the cream, just stir it up and use 2/3 of the can.
- Add the lime juice, sugar, and ice to the blender. Blend on high until very smooth. Taste and adjust the amount of lime juice or sugar to your liking. Serve cold.
