Mesquite Malt
Old Fashioned Treat
Ingredients
1½ tsp Vanilla Extract, or equivalent in vanilla powder (non-alcoholic preferred)
3 Tbsp Navitas Naturals Coconut Palm Sugar
2 Tbsp Navitas Naturals Mesquite Powder
1 Whole Young Coconut
1 Cup Ice
Directions
Open the young coconut and drain the water into a blender. Carefully scoop out the flesh into the blender as well.
Add in the ice, palm sugar, mesquite powder and vanilla extract. Blend thoroughly until completely smooth and creamy. Pour into a glass or two, and serve with a straw if desired. Makes 3½ cups.
*Young coconuts vary in their water and flesh yield. This recipe was made with 1 cup of coconut flesh and 1½ cups water. Use an additional young coconut if needed to match these quantities for best results.
Chef's Notes
You can also substitute the palm sugar for 2 Tbsp maple syrup for equally delicious results.
