Allergens

Coconut - Dairy (Milk and Heavy Cream)

Ingredients

• 2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
• A pinch of sea salt
• 3 tablespoons Swerve Confectioners
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Ice cubes and crushed ice for serving
• Cinnamon sticks and toasted coconut flakes, for garnish

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, cardamom, and sea salt. Heat over medium heat until it just begins to steam.
2. Remove from heat and whisk in the Swerve Confectioners until fully dissolved.
3. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool for 10 minutes.
4. Strain the mixture into a glass bottle or jar through a fine mesh sieve to remove any undissolved cardamom particles.
5. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
