Thai Coconut Milk (19 oz. Can)
Thai Pure Coconut Cream (13.5 oz. Can)
Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut (15 oz. Can)
4 Cups Half & Half
5 Ginger Coins ¼ Inch Thick
1 Cup Shredded Sweetened Coconut
Zest of Two Limes
Juice of Two Limes
¼ Cup Water
½ Teaspoon Ground Cardamom
Garnish
Seasonal Fruits
Unsalted Pistachio Nuts
Combine coconut milk, pure coconut cream and Coco Lopez in a saucepan bring to a simmer. Add ginger coins, shredded coconut, lime zest, cardamom and cook for ten minutes at a very low simmer. Turn heat off and let stand one hour at room temperature.
Add half & half and water, chill until cold. Strain cold soup through a fine strainer to remove solids (push down with the back of a spoon on the solids to get every drop of flavor).
Cut fruits for fruit jewel garnish into a fine dice. After soup chills, place desired fruit jewels in a small cup, bowl or sherry glass, top with coconut soup. Finely chop pistachio nuts and garnish lightly.
