How to Make Coconut Milk Coffee

Place the finely ground coffee beans in the saucepan. Boil the water and pour it over the grounds. Stir gently and let steep off the heat for 4 minutes. This process extracts the rich coffee flavor.
While the coffee steeps, add three tablespoons of full-fat coconut milk and one teaspoon of vanilla extract (if using) to each mug and stir to combine. Chilling the canned coconut milk beforehand (see tips below) will make it even creamier!
After 4 minutes, strain the coffee through a fine-mesh sieve or coffee filter into a separate container or directly into the mugs with the coconut milk. This crucial step removes any grounds for a smooth and enjoyable drink.
Pour the strained coffee into the mugs containing the coconut milk and vanilla. Stir well to combine the flavors fully.
(Optional): Sprinkle with grated chocolate for an extra indulgence.

Tips

Full-Fat Coconut Milk is Essential: For the ultimate creamy coconut coffee, use full-fat coconut milk (at least 60-70% fat content). It blends seamlessly with the coffee.
Chill for Extra Creaminess: Chill the canned coconut milk (unopened) for at least 30 minutes before using. This thickens the cream and enhances the flavor, creating a truly rich coconut coffee. You can also scoop out the thick cream from the top of the can, leaving the thinner liquid behind.
Cezve/Ibrik Brewing (Optional): For a more traditional method, use a cezve or ibrik to brew the coffee. This method can add a unique depth of flavor.
Adjust the Ratio to Your Taste: Experiment with the coffee-to-coconut milk ratio to create your perfect coconut coffee. Some prefer a stronger coffee flavor, while others love a more coconutty taste.
Sweeten Naturally: If you prefer a sweeter drink, add a touch of honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar. Start with a small amount and adjust to your preference.
Flavor Variations: Spiced Coconut Coffee: Add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom to the coffee grounds while brewing for a warm and inviting spiced coconut coffee. Chocolate Coconut Coffee: Add a tablespoon of cocoa powder or chocolate syrup to the coffee while brewing or stir it into the finished drink for a decadent chocolate coconut coffee.
Serving Suggestions: Warm your mugs before pouring the coffee. A sprinkle of cinnamon or cocoa powder on top adds a beautiful touch.
Sustainability Matters: Choose organic and sustainably sourced coconut milk whenever possible.
Storage: Refrigerate leftover coconut milk in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
