NOTE: If you add ice or refrigerate this drink the coconut milk will congeal.

Ingredients:

1 cup coconut milk
2 cups milk
cinnamon, for garnish

Method:

Swirl together coconut milk with milk. Sprinkle with cinnamon and enjoy.

Let the dance begin!

I don’t know about you, but these pictures make me insanely happy. All drinks should be this fun to make.
