Recipe Tips
- Toasting the coconut is the most important step — don't skip it.
- For a frozen version, blend all ingredients with 1 cup of ice until smooth.
- Caramel syrup (Torani or Monin) gives the most consistent flavor. Homemade caramel also works beautifully.
Make It Your Own
For a crowd: Batch the creamy base without ice, then shake or blend individual portions so the texture stays fresh.
Easy swaps: Use toasted coconut flakes instead of a cookie garnish. Use oat milk in place of dairy milk for a gentler coconut finish.

How do I get a visible swirl?
