Why We Love Coconut Milk

Coconut milk might be our favorite non-dairy milk alternative. It makes everything rich and creamy, and it’s impressively versatile – as you’ll see from all the savory and sweet recipes in this list! And, I promise, it really doesn’t make everything taste like coconut.It’s thought to have several health benefits. Some studies show it potentially aids in weight loss (when incorporated into a well-balanced diet, of course). Others indicate it can boost the immune system, thanks to its lauric acid.Coconut milk is really very simple. It’s made from grating the white flesh of a coconut, then squeezing the flesh through a cheesecloth. The liquid that comes out is the coconut milk!Interested in making your own coconut milk?
