Start by gathering all ingredients and preparing your blender. This will ensure a smooth and efficient process.
Scoop out the fresh young coconut meat from about one coconut and gather approximately 1 cup of it. Make sure to work over a bowl to catch any excess coconut water.
In a blender, combine 1 cup of fresh coconut meat and 1.5 cups of coconut water.
Add 1 cup of ice cubes into the blender to provide that classic shake texture.
Pour in 0.5 cup of unsweetened coconut milk to add creaminess to the shake.
Sweeten with 2 tablespoons of agave syrup or maple syrup, depending on your preference for sweetness.
Add in 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract for a hint of flavor depth.
Include a pinch of sea salt to enhance the overall flavor of the shake.
Blend the mixture on a high setting until smooth and creamy, ensuring that all the ice cubes are well crushed.
Taste the shake and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding more syrup as desired.
Pour the Dairy-Free Buko Shake into chilled glasses.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing treat!
