1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
4 ounces (scant 1/2 cup) silken tofu

2 teaspoons granular sugar substitute (optional)
1 to 2 drops coconut extract, to taste
3 ice cubes
Whipped cream, for garnish
1. Combine coconut milk, tofu, 1/2 cup raspberries, sugar
substitute and coconut extract in a blender; blend until
smooth. (If you want to remove the seeds, you can
strain the mixture through a sieve, then return it to the
blender).

garnish with whipped cream and raspberries, if desired.
Serve immediately.
Coconut milk adds an exotic twist to this refreshing morning
shake. Be sure not to confuse sweetened cream of coconut with
unsweetened coconut milk.
