MAKE YOUR OWN COCONUT MILK
I do encourage you to make your own - the fresh, aromatic flavour can't be beat, and it's very inexpensive to make.

Steps:
- In a medium-sized pot, place dessicated coconut and water.
- Mix and allow to soak for ½ an hour.
- After ½ an hour, turn heat onto low and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Turn off heat and leave pot on element for ½ an hour.
- After ½ an hour, transfer coconut mixture to blender or processor and process for 45 seconds.
- Put a large sieve over a bowl and empty coconut mixture into it.
- Press down hard on coconut solids with the back of a spoon to remove as much coconut milk as possible.
- This method produces approximately 2 cups of coconut milk.
- Can be made up to 2 days before use in a recipe and refrigerated, covered. The milk will separate in the fridge, forming a creamy 'fat' layer on top, and a thinner 'liquid' layer underneath. Not to worry, the fat layer will melt into the liquid when heated and form a lovely milk.

- Add coconut, 3 cups (720 ml) water, salt, and any additional add-ins (optional) to a high-speed blender. Top with lid and cover with a towel to ensure it doesn't splash. Blend for about 2 minutes or until the mixture seems well combined.
- Scoop out a small sample with a spoon to test flavor/sweetness. Add more dates, salt, or vanilla as needed. Add remaining 1 cup (240 ml) water if too thick.
- Pour the mixture over a large mixing bowl or pitcher covered with a nut milk bag, a very thin towel, or a clean T-shirt. In my experience, it benefits from a single strain either through a very thin towel or nut milk bag. You can save pulp for baked goods or to add to oatmeal, smoothies, or energy bites.
- Transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate. Will keep in the refrigerator up to 5 days (sometimes more). Enjoy cold or hot and shake before use, as it can separate in the refrigerator (due to no preservatives!). Can be used in smoothies, with granola, for golden milk, for matcha lattes, or for baked goods.
