Ingredients
- 1 can coconut milk in a can
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot or cornstarch
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract optional
- 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes toasted
Instructions
- Toast coconut flakes in a small skillet over medium heat until lightly browned. Remove from skillet and set aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan on medium heat add coconut milk and sugar. Stir until sugar has melted completely.
- Turn heat to low and add arrowroot or cornstarch (if adding) stirring until the syrup begins to thicken (3-5 minutes).
- Turn off heat and add extracts and coconut flakes.
Notes
- Make sure that you use canned coconut milk and not coconut cream. I prefer to use full-fat coconut milk for the best texture and flavor.
- While the syrup thickens after you add the cornstarch mixture make sure that you stir it consistently so that it doesn't lump up or stick to the bottom of your saucepan.
- I prefer to use granulated sugar or pure cane sugar to make this recipe. However, you could swap it out for a sugar-free alternative or coconut sugar if you want to add an extra flavor to your homemade syrup.
- If you plan to use this syrup in a cocktail or on top of ice cream make sure that you chill it first so that it doesn't melt your ice or ice cream.
