How to Make Caribbean Coffee

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Using a hammer and nail, carefully poke two holes in the coconut to drain the liquid.
  3. Drain the coconut liquid into a saucepan. Reserve the liquid.
  4. Place the whole coconut in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
  5. Let the coconut cool slightly, then crack it open and remove the coconut meat.
  6. Grate the coconut using a food grater or processor until you have approximately 4 cups of grated coconut.
  7. In the saucepan, combine the reserved coconut liquid, grated coconut, and milk.
  8. Heat over low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture becomes creamy and heated through (about 5-7 minutes).
  9. Strain the coconut mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, reserving the grated coconut.
  10. Toast the reserved coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly browned. Set aside.
  11. In each of eight warmed mugs, combine ½ cup of hot coconut milk and ½ cup of hot coffee.
  12. Sweeten with sugar to taste.
  13. Sprinkle each mug with the toasted coconut.
  14. Serve immediately and enjoy!
