Author Notes

I love coconut. When I was little, the first time I had a frozen dessert flavored with coconut, I was in Puerto Rico where my father was working at the time. This is a recipe that is super easy and reminds me of that first time I realized how much I love coconut. NB: I picked up two tips that come from awesome chefs- one is to use sweetened condensed milk for smoothness, (Nigella Lawson) and the other is to add alcohol to prevent the mixture from freezing beyond the point of scooping. (David Leibovitz.) Enjoy! —navahfrost
