    CREAM OF COCONUT
    Darcy O'Neil from Art of Drink Recipe
    --------------------
    400ml (1.7 cups) Coconut Milk
    375g (1.75 cups) sugar (Cane Sugar optional)
    1 Tbsp Coconut Milk Powder (optional)
    Pinch of Salt
    Combine the coconut powder and the sugar and mix well. To a pot add the coconut milk and the sugar/coconut mixture. Add the salt and heat gently until the sugar is dissolved. Do not boil. You know it's done when the syrup turns more translucent. The cream of coconut will keep refrigerated for up to a month.

    There is no reason not to make your own. It's one of the cheapest, easiest things you can make and versatile to boot. Try swapping it in for the simple in a lime Tom Collins, for example. It's really nice.
    Definitely use full-fat coconut milk over coconut cream. It mixes into drinks easier, and while you ALWAYS have to remember to shake homemade cream of coconut before use (remember -- we didn't put in all those weird emulsifiers and junk the commercial varieties use), the coconut milk version separates a little while a coconut cream version will split into a drizzle of syrup with a couple inches of hard white fat on top.
    Anyway, thanks for another great video. I hope it encourages loads of bartenders to add this useful syrup to their roster.

    I think we'd get better food products if the makers and owners were required to consume it regularly for as long as they sell it!

    Thanks Bruce, been making my own using this recipe too as Coco Lopez cost about $8 a can here in Australia. Loving your content as always. Your team always does such an excellent job.

    Nice one Bruce! I had not heard of powdered coconut milk before. It's hard to believe but Coco Real used to be even worse before they banned partially hydrogenated oils. It was essentially coconut flavored Crisco.

    I'm interested to see what cocktails you can use this in. The only use I've ever seen for it is Pina Coladas, but I don't drink much so there's that.

    Been using this ever since Darcy published the recipe. Way better than Lopez or Real. Definitely use full fat Coconut Cream for a beautiful pearly look and texture. Thanks Darcy.

    Loved the UHF reference. Coco Lopez is easy to get near me, and not expensive, but as you pointed out it has an ominous list of ingredients. I have to think home made is better. I freeze all my syrups (except for small bottles I keep out for daily use . They last pretty much forever.
    I was thinking about the rum additive. How did it change the flavor? I put a touch of cognac into my orgeat and it really elevates it.

    Wrong lid 😂 That must have been some strong coconut milk! Entertaining but very informative. Thanks Bruce!

    Now your cooking Bruce you are correct you can’t find this in the GTA I have been buying this at Walmart in the states for many years and bringing back to Canada when travelling. The one you just made looks to be the same colour as COCO Lopez.

    Thanks for the vid! Made this earlier. I was surprised that from 400ml of coconut milk, and 375g of sugar, the yield was a little over 500ml after mixing it all together. Very cheap, very easy, very fast. Keeping half in the fridge, and freezing the rest for when that runs out. It's hard to see why anyone would be out chasing the canned version.

      Yeah that’s what I love about it too. The speed and simplicity of making it, plus it’s better for you!

  • @markolson1552

    Basically the same as "Quick and Dirty" Orgeat, only you use Coconut Milk instead of Almond Milk, add the Coconut Milk powder, and leave out the Rose Water. I can do that.

    Great video and recipe!! My recipe might be slightly easier. 1 can coconut cream and 1 can of sweetened condensed milk. Just need to blend. Heck to the calories !!! 😂

    Looks like dish water 😂 really should use just white sugar. I’m sure the flavor is great tho!
