Have you ever subbed other fruit like raspberries or mango?
No, but there’s no reason you couldn’t!
Do you use canned coconut milk (full fat) or coconut milk that is refrigerated and comes in a box?
I use canned.
Do you mean use the ZEST from two medium lemons or do you mean remove the skin (zest the lemons) from two medium lemons and use the lemons themselves without the zest? How it is worded confuses me. I am trying to make this right now and got stumped. Thank you!!
Also, how many quarts does this recipe make?
You want to use the zest only. You can discard the rest of the lemon or use it to flavor another dish or beverage. The recipe makes about one quart.
I’m about to make this and am wondering if I can use Meyer lemon juice as the called-for lemon juice in the recipe? I was planning on just using the abundance of Meyer lemons I have on hand for the recipe. Thanks-
That’s fine!
