Sweet soup

It’s worth getting young coconut juice for this recipe, as it provides a milder, more refreshing flavour to the granita.

  • 1 cup fresh coconut juice
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 200 ml coconut milk
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 mango, diced
  • 1 grapefruit or pomelo, segmented

  • 1 can of lychees, drained and chopped
  • 1 tbsp nata de coco

Instructions

  1. Make a sugar syrup by dissolving the sugar in 2 tablespoons boiling water. Combine the coconut water and 1 tablespoon of the sugar syrup in a bowl, taste and adjust the sweetness to your preference. Pour into a small metal tray and freeze for 4 hours, use a fork to scrap the granita every few hours.
  2. Place the coconut milk in a large bowl, sweeten with some of the remaining sugar syrup to taste and season with a pinch of salt, set aside. You will not need any of the remaining syrup.
  3. In your serving glass layer mango, grapefruit, lychees, jackfruit, nata de coco. Pour over the coconut milk and top with the coconut granita and finger lime.
