Ingredients

150 g desiccated coconut
0.5 liter ½ water
0.5 kg ½ sugar
0.5 ½ vanilla pod (s)

Instructions

Bring the coconut flakes to the boil with the water and allow to cool.
Line a colander with a clean kitchen towel and hang it over a bowl. Pour the coconut mixture into the sieve and squeeze out the cloth well. This is how all the liquid comes out of the desiccated coconut.
Empty the liquid into a saucepan, add the pulp of the vanilla pod and the sugar. Now bring to the boil and simmer for 5 - 8 minutes. Fill the syrup into clean bottles and close them tightly.
The next day a plug formed on the syrup, which you can remove with a knife.
Tastes great in coffee or tea.
Do not throw away the coconut flakes, they can still be used for baking.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
