Ingredients
For the Coconut Lime Foam:
- 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for a creamy texture)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for a hint of sweetness)
- A pinch of salt
- Whipped cream dispenser and cream charger
For the Base Drink (Optional):
- 1 cup sparkling water or coconut water
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- Ice cubes
- Lime slices and mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Coconut Lime Foam:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, fresh lime juice, lime zest, powdered sugar (if using), and a pinch of salt until well combined.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the lime zest for a smooth texture.
- Pour the mixture into a whipped cream dispenser. Charge the dispenser with a cream charger, shake vigorously, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the foam to chill and stabilize.
Prepare the Base Drink (Optional):
- In a glass, combine sparkling water or coconut water with fresh lime juice.
- Fill the glass with ice cubes and stir gently.
- Garnish with lime slices and fresh mint leaves.
Assemble and Serve:
- Dispense the chilled coconut lime foam on top of the drink, creating a fluffy, aromatic crown.
- For a tropical presentation, serve the drink in a tall glass with a slice of lime and a sprig of mint as garnish.
Tips for Success
- Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the brightest flavor.
- Chill the coconut milk before preparing the foam for better stability.
- Experiment with additional tropical flavors, such as a touch of pineapple or a splash of rum for an adult twist.
