Make these cool coconut desserts at home.
The hot and muggy weather of summer makes us averse towards hot or warm foods. We need icy cold drinks and desserts to get some relief from the skin-piercing heat. Coconut is one food that has cooling, rejuvenating properties, making it an ideal addition to our diet. Although grown in coastal areas, coconut is easily available across the country, and is a relatively inexpensive food. Coconut is consumed in many forms – coconut water, raw coconut, coconut milk, coconut cream etc. Coconut abounds with electrolytes that help in keeping us hydrated and in good health.
Its creamy texture makes it apt to whip up some tantalising desserts. During the current lockdown, when most of us are trying to hone our cooking and baking skills, let’s try some delicious coconut-based desserts that will make our summers just as fun as we are used to.
