Coconut Latte Recipe

Updated: 2 days ago


No ice. No fuss. Just chill vibes in a glass.


This was one of those recipes that started with, “I wonder what would happen if…” and ended up being ridiculously satisfying. The combo of coconut water, pandan cream, and chilled coffee? Refreshing, creamy, fragrant, and just the right amount of indulgent. It tastes like a beach day but with better coffee.

I didn’t add ice because I didn’t want to dilute the flavors. The chilled coconut water and coffee are enough. And that pandan-laced coconut rum cream? You’ll want to pour it over everything. There's nata de coco at the bottom for that chewy surprise, which just adds to the fun.

If you’re craving something a little different from your usual latte—give this a go. You don’t need any fancy gear aside from a milk frother. Just a bit of time, a love for coconut, and the urge to treat yourself.
