Why You’ll Love This Chocolate Coconut Milk
Looking for a quick, delicious, and dairy-free alternative to traditional chocolate milk? This easy chocolate coconut milk recipe is perfect for busy days. You want something tasty without the mess or hassle. Unlike many plant-based milk recipes, this recipe skips the step of straining through a nut milk bag. That process is often messy and time-consuming. No squeezing, no pulp, and best of all, no hand cramps!

Quick & Simple Chocolate Coconut Milk Recipe
This chocolate coconut milk comes together with just four simple, wholesome ingredients:
- Water
- Medjool dates (for natural sweetness)
- Cocoa powder (for that rich chocolate flavor)
- Coconut cream (for a creamy, luscious texture)
In just minutes, you’ll have a delicious, dairy-free chocolate milk that satisfies cravings while nourishing your body.
The Joy of Dairy-Free Living
Choosing chocolate coconut milk over traditional dairy has many benefits:
- Better Digestion: Coconut milk is naturally lactose-free, making it gentler on the stomach.
- Allergy-Friendly: Ideal for those with dairy allergies or sensitivities.
- Heart-Healthy Fats: Coconut cream is rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) that can support heart health and metabolism.
- Animal-Friendly: A compassionate choice that supports plant-based living.
Memories in a Glass
This recipe brings back fond memories of making chocolate milk for my daughter, Kelsey, when she was young. Over the years, we made dietary changes for health reasons. We also adjusted our diet to live more compassionately. Kelsey’s love for chocolate milk never faded. With this simple chocolate coconut milk, I can give her a healthier version of her favorite treat. This version is as nourishing as it is delicious.
Tips for the Perfect Chocolate Coconut Milk
- Choose Quality Coconut Cream: Opt for coconut cream without additives or thickeners. I love using a coconut milk, which contains only coconut and water. I have a few links below this post that will take you to some healthy options. Refrigerate it overnight, and the cream will rise to the top, making it easy to scoop.
- Customize Your Consistency: Prefer a thicker milk? Add more dates, extra coconut cream, or even a teaspoon of Irish Moss Gel (recipe link below). Like a thinner consistency? Stick with the base recipe.
- Get Creative:
- Spice it up with a hint of hot pepper for a Mexican chocolate twist.
- Blend in strawberries or blueberries for fruity variations.
- Skip the cocoa for a sweet coconut milk perfect over cereal, in smoothies, or even for making golden milk or vegan “cheese” sauce.
