How to make it

5 steps. Take it one step at a time.

  1. Scoop the fresh coconut meat out of the shell

    Scoop the fresh coconut meat out of the shell, ensuring no brown skin is attached. Cut into small chunks for easier blending.

  2. Place the coconut meat, coconut water, sweetened condensed milk, and ice cubes

    Place the coconut meat, coconut water, sweetened condensed milk, and ice cubes into a high-speed blender.

  3. Blend on high power

    Blend on high power until the mixture is smooth, thick, and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more coconut water.

  4. Taste and add a teaspoon of sugar if you prefer it sweeter

    Taste and add a teaspoon of sugar if you prefer it sweeter. Pulse once more to incorporate.

  5. Pour into chilled glasses

    Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately with a straw.

A little kitchen wisdom

For the best flavor, use fresh mature coconut meat which has a higher fat content than young coconut. If you prefer a lighter version, you can substitute condensed milk with coconut cream and honey.
