Makes: 1 serving
Ingredients:
- 1 shot of espresso (or 2 shots for extra strength), cooled
- Plenty of ice cubes
- 2–3 tbsp La Vida Vegan White Coconut Spread
- 150–200 ml plant-based milk (coconut, almond or oat milk all work well)
- Optional: 1 tsp maple syrup or agave syrup to taste
- Optional garnish: an extra drizzle of White Coconut Spread, grated coconut or coconut chips
Method:
- Brew a strong espresso and let it cool first, so the ice does not melt too quickly.
- Fill a glass generously with ice cubes.
- Put the La Vida Vegan White Coconut Spread in a cup or shaker and mix with a small splash of warm milk until smooth and pourable. This prevents lumps in the glass.
- Pour the coconut mixture over the ice in the glass.
- Add the cooled espresso.
- Top up with the rest of the plant-based milk.
- Stir well until everything is nicely combined and a creamy, light brown colour appears.
- Finish if you like with a drizzle of White Coconut Spread, a sprinkle of grated coconut or coconut chips.
- Serve immediately with a straw.
Tip: Want the coconut twist to come through even more? Use coconut milk instead of regular plant-based milk. For a sweeter version you can add an extra splash of syrup, or keep it plain for a subtler creamy flavour.
