Instructions

Add coconut milk beverage and vanilla ice cream to a blender.
Add pure vanilla extract and sweetened shredded coconut.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds, just until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with whipped cream.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Use sweetened shredded coconut to enhance the coconut macaroon flavor and add texture. If you prefer a smoother shake, blend coconut flakes slightly before adding.
