They NEVER email me unless I have purchased something, so don't be afraid to sign up. Finding a drop off location usually requires a call into Azure, and can be tricky, but is well worth it if you even want to buy in bulk once a year (and have to drive a bit).

Recipe:
2 cups unsweetened flaked, coconut
4 cups boiling water

Directions:
Add coconut flakes to blender and pour boiling water over the coconut. Allow coconut to steep in water for about 5 minutes.

Blend for exactly 1 minute.
Strain using a nut bag.
Allow to cool, and wring out bag of coconut until it is as dry as possible.
Chill or use immediately.

Please note that the fat will harden on top of the coconut milk. Re-heat and mix if you'd like a coconut milk that is more of a canned coconut milk consistency. Or, remove coconut cream from the top of the refrigerated coconut milk, let soften on counter slightly and use in place of whipped cream.

Made my coconut milk following this recipie! It turned out DELICIOUS!!!! It ended up forming a good layer of fat on top!! This morning I used the coconut milk to cook my steel cut oats and that layer of fat was so firm! I left it to whip up later and use as a dip for strawberries!

Finally made coconut milk. I've been eyeing this recipe for months and I finally made it! So easy! Added a little piece of vanilla pod that got all blended up with the coconut yumm. Just tasted it now, still warm... sooo good! Delighted. I really dislike the coconut milk I find here in Italy. they always add sugar and stuff.. this is great! Thanks! Trying coconut flour next :)

I just made this used half the recipe, turned out so good, I'll start doing this more often. I like the idea that half of it is fat on the top, and it's not pasteurized. Instead of a nut milk bag I used a cheese cloth over a 4c glass measuring cup with the strainer underneath - easy and worked out great. I'm now making the coconut flour - thanks for both recipes!

making fresh coconut milk again today for my oatmeal and fresh berries breakfast! Thank you so much for this recipe! I love how this milk is so creamy and the fact that I know what exactly is in it! Thank you again, healthnutnation! Looking forward for more of your recipes and health ideas!

Wow that WAS easy. And I love this because so often when I go to buy coconut milk or other types of milk they will have oils that I'm allergic to or other ingredients that I can't have. Thank you for this!

Homemade coconut milk is the only thing that could ever compete with heavy cream. It's so delicious.

I just purchased a coconut to make milk. I never would have thought to make it out of prepackaged coconut shavings. This method seems to be great if fresh coconut is not available or if you use your own grated coconut which was put away for later use... thanks.

btw, when I use fresh coconuts, I use Luke warm to room temp water.. the separation is not as bad as when hot water is used.

Oh my gosh finally a good recipe! I use coconut milk as a prepoo, because of all its healthy natural oils! I had a sip of this and I LOVE IT.

Amazing tutorial, one question, what will happened if first turn the coconut flakes to coconut flour and then get the milk out of it, will it give more pure coconut milk?

bernardrouhi

Thank you! Been making lots of it all started out as looking for a milk substitute for banana bread, which is delicious with this stuff and a mix of coconut flour almond flour and regular flour!

speaking from a chef standpoint to get the best milk, grate fresh coconut, and squeeze the milk out, takes longer, but I feel it produces a better product...adding water to anything dilutes it...
