Tips

  • Almond extract gives a sweet, nutty flavor that enhances all the spices; you can also use vanilla.
  • If you can't find all coconut ingredients, using regular evaporated milk and regular condensed milk will still taste amazing.
  • For best results, let it chill overnight.
  • Stir before serving.
