COCONUT MILK COFFEE – POLYNESIAN INSPIRED ESPRESSO

Inspired by the Polynesian tradition of mixing coffee with coconut milk, this rich and creamy coconut milk coffee is a delightful twist for coffee lovers. Smooth espresso combined with silky coconut milk foam, lightly sweetened to taste and topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

⏲️ Prep Time: 5 min

🍽️ Yields: 2 cups

🥣 Ingredients

  • 2 strong espresso shots
  • 200 ml coconut milk
  • Sugar (optional)
  • Ground cinnamon (for garnish)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Pour hot espresso into cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Sweeten coffee to taste, or enjoy unsweetened.
  2. Heat coconut milk until warm (microwave is easiest).
  3. Froth the coconut milk using a milk frother, steam wand, or handheld mixer until foamy.
  4. Slowly pour the coconut milk foam over the espresso, filling the cups.
  5. Dust the top with cinnamon using a fine tea strainer.

💡 Tips

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for a creamier texture.
  • Adjust sweetness according to preference or keep it naturally rich and unsweetened.
  • Frothing coconut milk might be less stable than dairy; use freshly opened cans for best results.
