Notes

Modifications
I must stress that you'll get the best results using full-fat coconut milk, and, of course, the flavor. But I've also tried this recipe with almond milk, and it comes close.
Feel free to mix and swirl other fruity flavors into the mix like passion fruit, banana, mango, or papaya.
If you want to amp up the sweetness, add a tablespoon of agave nectar, honey, maple syrup, or a liquid zero-sugar option like stevia or monk fruit.
Storage
Store in an airtight, freezer-safe container in the freezer, and it will keep for up to three months. Just note that the texture tends to get icier after two weeks.
