Looking forward to trying this asap! Does anyone know how long it would keep in the fridge? Also what should I keep it in? And could it be frozen? Thanks!

Great recipe, thanks! I took it further and stewed it in my rice cooker for a few hours, let it cool, then blended the mixture in a blender for a couple minutes, and then I strained it. The whole family thinks it turned out better than store bought.
I also stewed a batch with cocoa powder added, followed the same procedure plus adding 2 tsp of honey during blending, and viola – chocolate coconut milk!! Awesome for in coffee.
My next experiment was to try it with date paste instead of cocoa with the intent of making a coffee creamer / sweetener. I have to play with the ratios but it turned out preety good!!

Thank you for all your hard work – it is an inspiration and huge source of help. :)

What a simple and easy recipe! I have often pondered making my own homemade coconut milk, but never have. I am excited to try this recipe.
