What is in a Mr Coconut shake?

An ingenious idea born in Singapore, Mr Coconut’s signature Coconut Shake is a thirst-quencher in our relentless heat. Their coconut shakes contain mainly fresh coconut pulp, coconut water, and coconut ice cream blended together with ice. This makes for a light, creamy drink that is packed with vitamins and minerals — considering how coconut is considered a superfood! The coconut shake also contains electrolytes that make it a good drink for you to replenish fluids with, especially after exercising.

Their signature drink is the Coconut Shake but Mr Coconut also has other flavour varieties on their menu including Coconut Oreo Shake and Coconut Avocado Shake.

This easy-peasy recipe can be whipped up in just five minutes. The timing is also very much dependent on how quickly you can crack open the coconut! Read below for a pro tip on how to crack open the coconut when trying this Mr Coconut Shake recipe!

Prep time: ~5min
Cook time: ~2min (Blend time)

Servings: 1

Recipe Ingredients:

• 1 fresh coconut

• Large ice cubes

Recipe Instructions:

1. Crack open a fresh coconut (available on GrocerKing Official Store) and pour the coconut water into the PowerPac USB Portable Juicer (available on Shopee Supermarket)
2. Scoop about two spoonfuls of coconut ice cream (available on ckhfoodtrading) into the blender.

To open a coconut:

1. Try locating the coconut’s eyes (usually located at one end of the coconut)
2. Using a screwdriver (available on Shopee Supermarket), puncture holes into the eyes. You may need to use a hammer to knock the holes in.
3. Once done, turn the coconut over an empty bowl for all the coconut water to drain out
4. You can use the hammer to crack open the coconut husk. Hold the coconut firmly with one hand, and hammer the coconut while rotating it. Try to do this along the middle of the husk.
5. Continue doing so until the husk starts to crack. Gently pry open the coconut along the crack lines to get two halves.
