💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Add spirulina powder after the coconut milk, not before, because spirulina contains polysaccharides that hydrate slowly; mixing it into liquid first prevents clumping and ensures even distribution of the blue pigment throughout the 200ml base.techniqueAdd after coconut milk combines
- ✓Use a shaker bottle (not a spoon) to combine the 100ml coconut water and 100ml coconut milk because the two liquids have different densities (coconut water is 98.3% water vs coconut milk at 5-20% fat); vigorous shaking creates a stable emulsion that won't separate.equipmentShaker bottle required for emulsification
- ✓Dissolve the lavender syrup in the coconut water (100ml) before adding coconut milk because the syrup's sugar content (typically 60-65% by weight) won't fully dissolve in the fat-based coconut milk; this prevents grittiness and ensures uniform sweetness.technique60-65% sugar content in syrup
- ✓Use 5-7 ice cubes (approximately 60-80g) rather than more, because excess ice will melt and dilute the drink by up to 30% as the beverage sits; coconut milk's 5-20% fat content also slows heat transfer, so fewer cubes maintain the drink for 8-10 minutes.ingredient5-7 cubes (60-80g); 30% dilution risk
