Ingredients

For the Toasted Coconut:
¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
For the Shake Base:
3 large scoops (about 1.5 cups) coconut ice cream or vanilla ice cream
½ cup coconut milk (canned, light or full-fat)
Zest of 1 lime
Juice of ½ lime (about 1 tablespoon)
1 tablespoon cream of coconut (like Coco López, optional for extra sweetness)
For Garnish:
Whipped cream
Toasted coconut flakes
Lime wedge

Instructions

Spread the shredded coconut in a dry skillet over medium-low heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant and golden brown. Remove immediately from the pan to cool.
Place a tall glass in the freezer.
Wash the lime well, then zest it using a fine grater. Juice half of the lime.
In a blender, combine the coconut ice cream, coconut milk, most of the toasted coconut (reserve some for garnish), lime zest, lime juice, and cream of coconut (if using).
Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Pour into the chilled glass. Top with whipped cream, a sprinkle of the reserved toasted coconut, and garnish with a lime wedge.
