Ingredients:
2 scoops vanilla ice cream ( 1/3 cup each)
cilled ginger ale or ginger beer
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons lightly sweetened whipped cream
1 tablespoon toasted shredded coconut
lime slices (optional)
Directions:
Scoop ice cream into chilled 16 ounce glass.
Add the lime juice.
Fill with ginger ale or ginger beer (ginger beer has a much sharper, more spicy flavor, if you’re unfamiliar with it).
Top with whipped cream and coconut and garnish with a lime wedge, if desired.
Serve immediately.
To toast coconut, spread flaked coconut on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees, stirring frequently, for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
Remove from oven and store in an airtight container or bag until needed.
