Homemade coconut milk
There are all different types of coconut milk. But many commercial coconut milks have fillers and additives. This is a simple and a great way to make your own. It only takes a couple minutes and is creamy and really delicious. This coconut milk is also great when you want to make dairy-free kefir.

Hi Donna..I have made coconut kefir with store bought coconut milk but I am excited to make my own. Where do you buy your dried, unsweetened coconut? Does it come in bulk?
I buy it at the help food store in bulk.You can also buy it packaged.
My coconut milk made a think layer of cream that hardened in the frig. Do you take this off? Or do you only use it at room temp?
I love your site. Thank you for all the great information.
No you can stir this in or just use as is. It’s delicious.
This is pretty much how I’ve always made my coconut milk but I’ve always sieved it and made coconut flour with the particles. So, if finely ground first and then blended (I have a BlenTec), it will be smooth?
Yes, mine is smooth and I use a blend tec.
Is it possible to make coconut kefir cheese?
Love your site! I’m so happy I became a member.
Yes, it is and you can make it the same way you make regular kefir cheese. Just use coconut kefir instead of regular kefir. http://www.culturedfoodlife.com/how-to-make-kefir-whey-and-kefir-cheese/
Hi Donna,
When I watch the videos on your site they stop and start. I have high speed DSL and don’t have aproblem with videos on other sites. HELP! I love your website!
We are adding a new video player shortly so it should help with this. Most don’t have trouble but just depends on your browser and internet connection. Do you pause them and let them load? This always helps too.
I’ll try that, thanks, have a great day!
Will you also do a video on making coconut kefir??
Thanks! Love your videos!
