  • Author: Olivia Bennett

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut cream
  • 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Zest the orange using a microplane or fine grater and set aside.
  2. Juice the orange and measure out 1/2 cup (120 ml) of fresh orange juice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this Refreshing Coconut Orange Glow ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare it a few hours in advance. For the best texture, chill it covered in the refrigerator and give it a quick stir or blend before serving to refresh its creamy consistency.

What can I use if I don’t have fresh oranges?

High-quality, pulp-free orange juice is a good substitute. Using fresh juice is ideal for the brightest flavor in this Refreshing Coconut Orange Glow, but a good bottled juice will still yield a delicious creamy citrus delight.

Is this recipe dairy-free and vegan?

Yes, this recipe is naturally dairy-free and vegan when made with full-fat coconut milk or cream. It relies on coconut for its rich, creamy texture without any animal products.
