Blend: Blend the mixture for at least two minutes until smooth and creamy.
Strain: Pass the blended mixture through a nut milk bag or a fine mesh strainer to separate the liquid from the coconut pulp.
Store: Pour the coconut milk into a bottle or jar and store it in the refrigerator. Shake well before use.
Tip: Don't discard the coconut pulp! You can find a recipe for making coconut flour with it here on the site.
Variation: Adjust the amount of water to achieve your desired consistency; less water will result in a creamier milk.
