August’s Recipe:

Limber de Coco

Whip up a batch of these icy Limber de Coco (Puerto Rican coconut popsicles) to enjoy for dessert this summer! Made with a creamy coconut milk base and bites of sweet shredded coconut. Freeze in popsicle molds or keep things nostalgic in a plastic cup, the way we do in PR.

Last Quarter’s Challenge

Our first ever cooking challenge featured classic Puerto Rican Tostones, and it was so much fun seeing snapshots of the recipe coming to life in your kitchens. Thank you to all who participated.
