- 13.66 ounces coconut cream unsweetened; 1 can
- 8 ounces coconut water unsweetened

Additionally, place the cans of coconut milk and cream of coconut in the refrigerator for several hours before using.27.32 ounces unsweetened coconut milk, 13.66 ounces coconut cream
- Pour the coconut water and sugar into a small saucepan and heat over low heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar is dissolved, then remove from heat. Transfer to the refrigerator to cool completely.8 ounces coconut water, 1 cup granulated sugar
- After the coconut water cools, place it along with both cans of coconut milk and the coconut cream into a blender. Blend just until the mixture is combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared ice cream maker and churn until it reaches the soft-serve stage. Add the shredded coconut if using.½ cup shredded coconut
- Transfer the sorbet to a freezer-safe container, and freeze for 2 to 3 hours. The sorbet will firm up a bit but will be softer in texture than a full-fat, dairy based ice cream.

Notes
- The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of ½ cup of sorbet. Actual calories will vary.
- Prep time does not include the time for the ice cream core to freeze or for the cans of coconut milk and coconut cream to chill.
- The sorbet freezes solid, so it’s best to let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes prior to scooping out of the container.
