Full fat coconut milk also nourishes the gut with its restorative electrolytes and healthy fats. Making this recipe, the perfect combination of nutritious and indulgent. ​It's as simple as chilling a can overnight, mixing in the sweetener of your choice, and whipping up those creamy peaks. This recipe is raw, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, soy free, and refined sugar free. Enjoy!
