toasted coconut syrup

Toasted coconut cold brew coffee is a terrific summer drink that will save you some time and money by making at home. This cold brew is actually a coffee concentrate and it needs some water in the drinking glass to help mellow it out, unless of course, you&#x27;re into really strong coffee. Then by all means, skip adding water to your glass and go for the gusto!

To make the toasted coconut coffee syrup: Preheat oven to 425° F and adjust the top rack to the second notch from the top of the oven. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and spread the coconut out in an even layer. Toast the coconut for 7-10 minutes until nicely browned and toasted, tossing after 5 minutes. Watch the coconut carefully as it can burn easily.

Stir the sugar and water together in a small saucepan and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer for 5 minutes, remove from the heat, and stir in the warm toasted coconut. Cover and allow the coconut to steep in the syrup for 30 minutes. Pour the syrup through a fine mesh strainer into a mason jar or resealable glass bottle to cool. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before using. There may be some coconut residue in the syrup; if that bothers you, strain the syrup once more and if not, shake before adding to your coffee.

To make the cold brew: Grind the coffee...

To make the cold brew: Grind the coffee beans on the coarse or French press grind setting (typically setting 1 or 2 on a burr grinder) or have your favorite coffee shop grind your favorite beans. If using freshly ground coffee (that you're scooping from a bag of ground coffee), you'll need about 1¼ to 1½ cups of coarsely ground coffee.

Fill up a large pitcher with 2 quarts...

Fill up a large pitcher with 2 quarts of water and stir in the coffee with a wooden or plastic spoon. Cover and allow the coffee to sit at room temperature out of direct sunlight for 12-24 hours.

Strain the coffee through a double layer of...

Strain the coffee through a double layer of cheesecloth or a paper towel (my preferred method) in a fine mesh strainer set over another pitcher. If you notice coffee grounds floating in the strained coffee, strain it once more. I don't find this to be an issue with the paper towel method. Refrigerate until cold.

To serve: Fill a glass with ice. Pour...

To serve: Fill a glass with ice. Pour about 2 tablespoons of the syrup into the glass then pour the cold brew into the glass until the glass is about ¾ full. Add a good splash of water to the glass and stir until the syrup combines with the cold brew. Serve or drink immediately.

Homemade Toasted Coconut Syrup is simple to make and you only need shredded coconut, sugar and water. For drinks, desserts or pancakes!

Toasted Coconut Syrup

coconut

white sugar (200 grams)

water (235 milliliters)

Toast

Add the coconut to a dry pan over a low heat and toast, stirring often, for 3 minutes or until it begins to turn golden brown and fragrant.

Simmer

Add the toasted coconut to a saucepan along with the sugar and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Cool

Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool and infuse for 30 minutes.

Strain

Place a fine mesh sieve over a bowl, then pour in the coconut syrup to remove the coconut. (Don’t throw away the coconut - it’s delicious served over vanilla ice cream!)

Place the bowl into the refrigerator for a few hours. The natural coconut oil may solidify on top, so scrape it off and discard.

Store

Pour into a bottle and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

TIP: You can use the toasted coconut syrup before the oil solidifies, but don’t pour it into a thin-necked bottle until after that stage or it will be difficult to remove it.

I can't tell you how excited I am to try this recipe! I'm a coco- "nut" (pun intended), and this syrup is going to be so great to soak the layers of the coconut cake I always make. I know it'll take it to a whole new level.
