Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cans (13-14 ounces / 390-415 milliliters) unsweetened coconut milk, chilled
- 1 can (13-14 ounces / 390-415 milliliters) unsweetened coconut cream, chilled
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) coconut water
Sweetener:
- ½ cup (100 grams) granulated sugar, adjust to taste
Garnish (Optional):
- Shredded coconut or coconut flakes
Instructions
- Craft the simple syrup by gently warming coconut water and granulated sugar in a petite saucepan over low heat, ensuring the sugar completely dissolves. Transfer the liquid to a container and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
- Pour the cooled simple syrup, full-fat coconut milk, and rich coconut cream into a high-powered blender. Pulse and blend the mixture until it achieves a smooth, uniform consistency with no visible sugar crystals.
- Select a 9×5 inch (23×13 centimeters) metal baking pan or freezer-safe container. Carefully pour the blended coconut mixture into the container, spreading it evenly across the surface.
- Place the container in the freezer. Every 30 minutes for the first 3 hours, remove the container and vigorously stir the mixture with a fork, breaking up any forming ice crystals to maintain a creamy texture.
- After approximately 4 hours, the sorbet should reach a scoopable consistency. If the mixture becomes too firm, let it rest at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
- When ready to serve, scoop the sorbet into chilled bowls. Optionally, garnish with toasted coconut flakes or shredded coconut for added texture and visual appeal.
Notes

- Blending ingredients creates a luxurious base that promises creamy, refreshing results.
- Frequent stirring during freezing prevents unwanted ice crystals, ensuring a velvety texture.
- Letting the sorbet rest briefly before serving allows for effortless scooping and maximum enjoyment.
