Ingredients
1 cup coconut cream
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
3/4 cup strong brewed coffee or cold brew
2 cups ice
3 tablespoons sugar, plus 1 teaspoon more for the whipped coconut cream (see Cook’s Note)
2 tablespoons natural cocoa powder, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch kosher salt
2 tablespoons sweetened shredded coconut, toasted
Directions
Special equipment:
a piping bag, an open star tip- Place the coconut cream in a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer if using, and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Add the coconut milk, coffee, ice, 3 tablespoons sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt to a blender and blend on high speed until smooth and frothy, about 1 minute. Pour the frappe into 2 glasses and refrigerate while you whip the coconut cream.
- Whip the chilled coconut cream and the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar in a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, until it holds soft peaks, about 1 minute. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with an open star tip and pipe a swirl of whipped cream onto each drink. Sprinkle the cream with the toasted coconut and dust lightly with cocoa powder.
Cook’s Note
