Limonada de Coco

Since summer began I have been receiving e-mails from some of my readers asking me about a Coconut Limeade that they had in Cartagena and loved. Okay guys, after some phone calls to Colombia, I have the recipe for you.

I don’t know how good the Limonada de Coco that my readers had in Colombia was, but let me tell you, this recipe is really delicious and refreshing. Thanks to my wonderful readers that told me about this drink and to my friends in Colombia who helped me to find the recipe for you.

Buen provecho!

Ingredients

1 cup cream of coconut
2 1/2 cups crushed iced
Juice of 3 limes
2 tablespoons of sugar or to your taste

Directions

1. Place all the ingredients in a blender until smooth.

2. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Though I can’t wait for the weather to cool down, this will certainly do while we wait.

Erica, yes this is a great drink here in Cartagena, in several restaurants we often visit they use ..leche condensada..condensed milk, this gives it a still smoother texture
thank you

Sounds delicious and easy! I’ll try it. By the way, do you know of any other recipe for making postre de pina? not Flan, but one that seems to have pieces of pina as well as angel cake or something that looks like bread. I tried it once when I was a little girl and it was so good.
Thank you.
