Tasting Note & Distinctive Features
Coconut milk, made from the white flesh of mature Ceylon coconuts has a thick consistency and a creamy texture. It is a nutritious and delicious substitute for cow’s milk and has a high calorie content. But 93% of its calories come from medium-chain triglycerides, and it is loaded with lauric acid, which converts to monolaurin in the body, a compound with potent antiviral and antibacterial properties. Coconut milk also contains vitamins C, E, B1, B3, folic acid, iron, magnesium, copper, selenium, potassium, and manganese.
