tropical toasted coconut syrup

Tropical Toasted Coconut Syrup Recipe

This tropical coconut syrup will add island flavor to all of your favorite coffee beverages. Make a batch and store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Ingredients

Equal parts unsweetened coconut flakes, water, and granulated sugar. One cup of each ingredient should yield about 8 ounces of syrup, depending on how long it simmers and reduces.

Instructions

  1. Add one cup of coconut flakes to a medium saucepan and toast over medium heat until flakes begin to turn golden brown.
  2. Add one cup of granulated sugar and one cup of water to the toasted coconut flakes.
  3. Heat the coconut flakes, water, and syrup over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture starts to simmer.
  4. Let the syrup gently simmer for 2-3 minutes, then remove the saucepan from the heat and let stand for up to 20 minutes.
  5. Strain the toasted coconut from the syrup through a cheese cloth or a fine strainer and store the remaining liquid in a sealed jar or bottle. Reserve the toasted coconut flakes for use in the coconut-infused cold brew recipe below.

Notes: Depending on the type of coconut flakes you use, you may need to squeeze the coconut in the cheesecloth or fine strainer to release all of the syrup. Once refrigerated you may see a layer of coconut oil settle on top of the syrup. Simply discard with a spoon reserve for cooking or baking if desired.

    coconut whipped coffee

    Whipped Coffee with Coconut Milk

    This recipe is a tropical take on the viral sensation and makes one beverage.

    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons concentrated Kauai Coffee or one shot prepared with an espresso machine or Aeropress.
    • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
    • 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar (optional)
    • 8 to 10 ounces coconut milk
    • Ice

    Instructions

    1. To make a whipped coffee with Kauai Coffee, first, you need to brew a very strong coffee. We were successful with several methods, but brewing with an espresso machine yielded the richest result. French Press and drip methods will also work, but you will need to reduce the coffee further after brewing. If you can brew with an espresso machine, skip to step three.
    2. If you brew with a French Press or drip method, prepare one strong cup and then make a coffee concentrate by simmering the coffee in a shallow saucepan over medium heat until it has reduced by half.
    3. Once your espresso shot or coffee concentrate is ready, combine two tablespoons of the hot brew with two tablespoons of granulated sugar and a pinch of cream of tartar in a large mixing bowl. Cream of tartar is a common baking ingredient and acts as a stabilizer in meringues and other whipped cream desserts.
    4. Now for the fun part – whip it! Use a stand mixer, hand mixer, or good old whisk to whip the coffee, sugar, and cream of tartar together. The more air you can whip into the sugar and coffee, the more fluffy and luxurious your coffee foam will become. If you are using a whisk, be patient. Your coffee will get silky and frothy, but you may not get the same volume as a mechanical mixer. It will be delicious no matter which mixing method you use.
    5. Fill a clear glass with ice and pour in one serving of coconut milk. Spoon the whipped coffee over the milk and sip to enjoy!
