Chinese Coconut Milk Drink

My homemade version of the famous Hainan Yeshu Coconut Milk. This Chinese coconut drink is made from just one ingredient: young coconut. Oh so refreshing!

Instructions

  1. Using a cleaver, chop at the top of the coconut until you create a small opening.
  2. Hold the coconut upside down over a blender jar to pour out the coconut water.
  3. Chop at the opening to make it bigger until you can insert a spoon inside.
  4. Use the spoon to scoop out all of the coconut meat, and add it to the blender.
  5. Add sweetener if desired. Blend coconut water and coconut meat together on high speed until smooth, around 30–45 seconds.
  6. Pour into glasses (or right back into the hollowed-out coconuts themselves)!

Notes

  • Gloves: If you have cut-resistant gloves, I recommend putting them on while you chop the coconut. Just in case your hand slips! I use this pair from Amazon.
  • Sweetener: This is optional. I like to drink my homemade coconut milk beverage without any added sugar, but you can sprinkle in some sugar, syrup, stevia, or any other sweetener of your choice.
