Full question
Where can I buy the coconut essence from, needed for the No-churn Pina Colada ice cream, please? Is it sold in supermarkets, or do I need to search online?
Our answer
Nigella's No-Churn Pina Colada Ice Cream (from KITCHEN) is a pineapple and coconut ice cream inspired by the tropical cocktail. The coconut flavour comes from the white coconut rum and is boosted by a drop of coconut essence or extract. Sometimes it will be labelled as coconut flavouring.
Some larger supermarkets will stock coconut essence or extract in their baking aisle, or you may find it in baking or cake decorating stores. Otherwise there are usually plenty of on-line stores that you can order from. However, if you can't find the coconut essence then it can just be omitted and the ice cream will still be delicious.
