Notes
- Shake the coconut milk before use to prevent separation and ensure a smooth texture.
- Use cold ingredients and chilled glasses to enhance the refreshment and flavor.
- Stir gently to blend without overmixing to avoid breaking down the texture.
- If separation occurs due to coconut milk, stir again just before serving to restore smoothness.
- For a sparkling version, add soda or sparkling water for fizz.
- To make it creamier, use full-fat coconut milk and add crushed ice.
- Add mint or a splash of lime juice for a fresh, bright twist.
- Blend with ice to create a frozen slushie version perfect for hot days.
