Make Your Own Whipped Cream Using Coconut Milk

Coconut Whipped Cream

Posted on November 4, 2011 by

Cutting down or eliminating dairy, but still want something to top a strawberry margarita or desert? Coconut milk makes just as thick and rich whipped cream as whipping cream, if not more! And the only different in preparation is to remember to put the coconut milk in the fridge long enough to chill.

An additional plus is that whipped coconut cream does not break down the way dairy does. This whipped cream can be covered and stored for up to a few days without separation taking place. That alone makes it a better option in my book!

Ingredients

  • 1 Can Coconut Milk
  • 2 Tbs Powdered Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla

Optional

  • 1 tsp Matcha or
  • 1 Tbs Cocoa Powder or
  • 2 Tbs Pomegranate juice

Directions

  1. Set can of coconut milk and mixing bowl in the fridge overnight
  2. Set beaters in freezer for a few minutes before you begin
  3. Open can and remove all the solid coconut cream (leaving about 1/4 can of coconut water)
  4. Mix cream in chilled bowl, with chilled beaters until fluffy (3 minutes or so)
  5. Mix in powdered sugar and/or any other flavoring
  6. Use right away or cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days

Margarita – Top of the line

Posted on April 1, 2010 by
  • Two parts tequila (good tequila works the best)
  • Half part Grand Marnier (this is a critical part… trust me, don’t go cheap on the citrus liqueur. Cointreau also goes very well, but really doesn’t have the same aromatic flavor that Grand Marnier has; try them side-by-side; they have totally different flavors… if you cheat here with Triple Sec or Orange Curaçao, you must add a dash of orange bitters!)
  • Half part fresh lime juice.
  • Half part fresh lemon juice.
  • Half part simple syrup.
  • Half part Limoncello (a fairly inexpensive type of lemon liqueur that isn’t sour but has lots of big citrus flavor… this is, I think, the secret ingredient in most restaurant margaritas— that extra citrus flavor adds a lot without making the drink more tart).
  • Pinch of salt. Very little will go a long way… alternatively, rim the glass with coarse salt.

Mix with a bunch of ice cubes in a shaker and shake violently for about 15 seconds (until ice starts to crystallize on the outside of your metal shaker). Pour contents into an old-fashioned glass and, for a nice visual appeal, you can finish with a drop of grenadine (let it sink to the bottom for a sweet finish). Add a couple of skinny straws and a slice of lime if you like. Trust me!

Hint: too strong for your taste? Stir in some lemon-lime soda— don’t shake!
