How to make Coconut Milk at home: easy, cheap and delicious

Today’s recipe is a very easy one, it is just about how to make coconut milk at home.

It is easy, but very useful, cheap and delicious.

For sure you know a nice coconut milk can be quite expensive, so making it at home it’s a very good idea. You only need a few minutes to prepare one liter of coconut milk and just one coconut.

And what is more interesting, you’ll get “material” to make smoothies or juices with the coconut water.

I love coconut milk, not only for its great flavor, but because it’s rich in grupos B vitamins and vitamin C. Also  it contains proteins (2,30 gr) and potassium.

This is one of the first recipes I make with my new brand Optimun G2.1, this is being a great change in my life, really! It is so easy to blend anything!! It even has a special mode to make nut milks and I got a nut-milk bag with the blender. So I has one coconut and all that, what could I do? haha
