14 oz coconut milk*
2 tablespoons Coconut Cream Concentrate (or more to taste)
Small handful of dates - pits removed (more or less to taste)
2 cups ice (more or less depending on thickness desired)

We made this this morning and it was so good! We were out of ice, so I subbed frozen banana. Will be making again, both with and without the banana.
I did add a bit more coconut cream concentrate than the 1 tsp per 6-8 oz water, as it seemed not quite coconutty enough. (For a double batch, I added an extra tsp.)

I added a little coconut peanut butter to the recipe to maximize the taste. A coconut date peanut butter shake -- delightful, delicious and healthy combo!
