Coconut milkshake
Description
The Coconut milkshake starts with coconut cream and banana slices frozen together overnight, ensuring a cold, icy base that creates a thick and creamy texture when blended. Coconut yoghurt and honey are added to add creaminess and sweetness, balancing the natural flavors. Blending until smooth eliminates any frozen chunks, resulting in a rich and velvety shake. Adding cream or milk helps adjust the consistency to individual preference, making the milkshake easier to sip.
This milkshake is served chilled in tall glasses, and can be garnished with whipped cream, desiccated coconut, or coconut flakes to add textural contrast and intensify coconut flavor. Its taste is refreshingly tropical with creamy and sweet notes making it suitable as a dessert or a cooling beverage on warm days.

- 120 grams coconut cream
- 1 banana
- 150 grams coconut yoghurt

Instructions
Prep one day in advance

Assembling the milkshake
- Remove the now frozen coconut cream and banana from the freezer about 15 minutes before you start, to soften it up a little.
- Using a fork, or knife, break the frozen cream and banana into smaller pieces.
- Add to a food processer along with the coconut yoghurt and honey.
- Whizz until you have a creamy, smooth consistency with no frozen chunks of cream or banana. You might have to stop the processer midway and stir the milkshake mixture around to ensure everything gets chopped up and mixed in.
- If you want the milkshake thinner, add a small splash of cream or milk and whizz again until it's the thickness of your liking.
- Serve cold in a tall milkshake glass or mason jar. Top with cream, desiccated coconut or coconut flakes.
