Directions
If using a fresh coconut, you will need a hammer and a long nail. Hammer the nail into the coconut into the three soft spots on top, going all the way through meat to liquid in center. Pour liquid into bowl and reserve.

To make coconut milk: Place shredded coconut in food processor or blender.
