Frozen Coconut Limeade, Basil Lime Chicken, Crispy Parmesan Edamame
Frozen Coconut Limeade
via: Smitten Kitchen Blog (modified by me)
Yield: 3 cups (we divided into 4 8-ounce glasses)
2 1/2 cups crushed or small ice cubes
1 cup coconut milk, well-shaken if from a can (I happened to have light coconut milk, it was fine.)
1/3 cup lime juice (from about 3 limes)
3 tablespoons granulated or superfine sugar (more or less to taste)(we actually used about 1/2 - 3/4 cup sugar)
Lime slices for garnish
Blend every thing until it reaches your desired consistency — almost smooth. For a crunchier effect, or fully smooth, for a milkshake/creamier effect. Pour into glasses, garnish with lime and don’t forget to share.
