How to make Homemade Coconut Lemonade:
- To start with the coconut lemonade recipe, extract the coconut water and split it in two to get all the pulp out. In this video we teach you how to open the coconut:
- Once the meat of the coconut is removed, remove all the dark skin with a sharp knife.
- Cut the coconut into very small pieces. Another option is to grate it, especially if your blender is not very powerful because it could be damaged when making the coconut lemonade.
- On the other hand, squeeze the lemons until you get about half a cup of juice. Booking.
- Bring the four cups of water to a temperature that is warm, but pleasant to the touch. Pour it into the blender along with the coconut and the coconut water that you extracted at the beginning.
- Blend these ingredients until you get a very homogeneous mixture. Strain very well trying to completely squeeze the coconut grate to extract all the milk. Reserve the shredded coconut for recipes like coconut cookies and coconut cakes.
- Return the liquid to the blender and beat with the lemon and sugar until the latter dissolves.
- The coconut lemonade should be very cold, so scoop out a few ice cubes and blend them into the lemonade on high speed. Some blenders have a frappe function, if this is your case, beat at that speed. It’s ready!
