Number Of Ingredients 2
Steps:
- Opening Coconuts: Open the coconuts by flinging them onto a cement or rock surface (this is how the monkeys do it!) Don't worry about losing the liquid, as it's not the coconut milk called for in cooking. Each coconut should break in 3 to 4 pieces. It is also possible to open a coconut by piercing the eyes of the coconut with a screwdriver or ice pick, draining the liquid through the holes and placing the coconut in a 400 degrees F oven for 20 minutes. Wrap the coconut in a towel and hit it with a hammer to loosen the shell and split it into pieces.
- Pry out the white meat and then pare off the dark skin.
- Grating Coconut Meat: To grate the white meat, put the meat through the grating disk of a food processor or use a hand grater. You should get about 7 cups of grated coconut from the two coconuts, which will keep in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
- Reserve 4 cups of the grated coconut for the pie crust and filling.
- Coconut Liquado: To make the coconut milk, combine the remaining 3 to 4 cups of loosely packed grated coconut with the milk (use 3/4 cup of coconut for each 1 cup of milk) in a heavy saucepan. Heat slowly, bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat and cool. Strain the milk, pressing down on the coconut meat to extract all the liquid. Squeeze all the coconut through a towel to get any last drops. Discard the coconut.

Steps:
- Hammer a nail through each of the coconut's 3 eyes to puncture. Drain and reserve the milk. Crack and remove the hull by smacking it on its equator. Then, with a vegetable peeler, peel and discard the brown top layer. Break the meat into chunks. In a blender combine coconut meat, coconut milk, honey and 1 cup whole milk. Blend until smooth. Add the remaining 2 cups milk and ice and blend until ice is finely crushed. Strain and serve in tall glasses over ice.
LICUADOS
Steps:
- Pineapple Licuado
- In the jar of a blender, add all the ingredients and pulse briefly until the pineapple chunks are finely chopped (but not a puree). You will have to add the ingredients in 2 batches. Strain through a medium-mesh strainer. Chill well in the refrigerator. Serve over ice with a garnish of fresh pineapple.
- Tangerine Licuado
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to blend. No need to strain. Chill well in the refrigerator. Serve over ice with a tangerine wheel for garnish.
SPICED BANANA LICUADO
This recipe came from a friend in my gourmet class from college. We did a beverage unit and we were to make a family favorite. She was from the southwest and her dad's family was from Mexico. I had never heard the word "licuado" used in a recipe before. I enjoyed the drink, but haven't made it in a while.

- If starting with a whole melon, wipe it clean with a damp paper towel. Place a dishtowel under your cutting board to keep it steady. Place the melon on the cutting board. Use a long, sharp knife to cut the melon in half, from stem to root end. Scoop out the membrane and seeds with a spoon and discard them.
- Place a melon half face down and cut it vertically into 1.5-inch wide slices. Take one of the slices and use a small knife to cut off the skin and a bit of the dark flesh of the fruit, which you will discard. Cut the remaining slice into chunks, until you have 2/3 cup.
