Coconut Milk, it must be noted, is not the same as Coconut water. It is extracted from mature coconuts and is used in many dishes as an alternative to regular milk. There are various kinds of coconut milk available all over the world, depending on the thickness. It is primarily rich in vitamins and is known to have great benefits for one's hair.

Quickly lets go through a quick way of extracting Coconut milk from the Coconut fruit itself. Its simple and easy.

HOW TO EXTRACT COCONUT MILK.
First, break the coconut shell.
Remove the Coconut meat from its shell.
Cut the Coconut meat into several tiny pieces
Put them in a blender, add a little warm water and blend.
Pour the blended content into a bowl, add a little warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes.
After then, pour the content into a sieve with very tight holes. You can squeeze the sieve to allow the liquid sieve out in time.
Place the coconut chaff in a bowl, add some warm water then repeat the same process over and over again till the chaff looks "not milky" anymore.
Voila! Our Coconut milk is ready.
