A cold glass of coconut shake is what you need this summer to refresh and cool down. It is creamy, and sweet and only uses 3 ingredients.

You must have all sorts of shake flavors like chocolate shake, banana shake, strawberry, mango, and more fruity flavors. However, the first time I tried a coconut shake, I was blown away by how amazing it tasted.

This flavor of milkshake is something that everyone loves, from kids to adults. This drink is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or brunch topped off with whipped cream or toasted coconut flakes.

I am a huge fan of Pina colada, so I had to give this drink a try. It is creamy and uses only 3 ingredients. Just blend everything together, and you have a delicious smoothie within 5 minutes.

What is Coconut Shake made of?

To make this delicious shake, you are going to need:

Coconut milk: The plant-based milk adds flavor to the drink. You can use canned coconut milk or carton milk, whatever is available.
Coconut extract: It boosts the coconut flavor in the smoothie.
Ice cream: Use vanilla ice cream for the shake as it compliments the coconut flavor. If you don’t want to use ice cream, you can substitute frozen yogurt.

The shake only requires 3 ingredients, but you can make it more delicious by adding toppings.

Whipped cream on the shake is an old-school classic.
Toasted coconut flakes
Chocolate shavings

Variations and Substitutions

You can add whatever fruit or flavor you want to this shake. Here are a few ideas:

For a 100% vegan shake, substitute ice cream with two frozen bananas.
If you want a protein shake, add 1-2 tbsp of vanilla protein powder to the shake.
Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder to make a chocolatey shake.
A slice of pineapple adds great flavor to the drink.
Frozen strawberries can also be used in the shake.

If you want to mix flavors, feel free to add fruits to the coconut shake. Some fruits that go amazing with coconut flavor are bananas, cherries, dates, pineapple, mangoes, figs, and orange juice.
