The original Brazilian Batida is made with coconut milk, condensed milk, cachaca, sugar and optionally fruit juice.

To make this cocktail low-carb, I used homemade keto condensed milk and skipped the sweetener. If you don't have cachaca, you can replace it with white rum - like I did - or vodka. If you are looking for more ideas, make sure you check out my low-carb cocktails!

Is Alcohol Keto?

Avoid drinking alcohol if you want to lose weight. Even if there is no sugar, your body can't store alcohol as fat - it has to metabolise it. This means that your body will utilise alcohol instead of body fat which will slow down weight loss. You can learn more about alcohol and keto in these posts: The Benefits and Risks of Alcohol Consumption and Complete Guide to Alcohol for Low-Carb Diets.

Ingredients (makes 2 servings)

³/₄ cup liquid coconut milk such as Aroy-D (180 ml/ 6 fl oz)
¹/₄ cup Dairy-Free Keto Condensed Milk or Keto Condensed Milk (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)
¹/₄ cup fresh lime juice (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)
¹/₂ cup white rum or sugar-free Cachaca (avoid "sweet" types) or vodka (120 ml/ 4 fl oz)
ice cubes
lime slices for garnish
Optional: liquid Stevia to taste (SweetLeaf or NuNaturals), and shredded unsweetened coconut for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Dairy-Free Keto Condensed Milk (uses coconut milk) or Keto Condensed Milk (uses cream) and set aside (this will take an extra hour or so). Freshly made condensed milk is liquid and thickens as you refrigerate it. Don't worry if it thickens, it will work just fine.
Place all the ingredients, except for the ice, into a blender: coconut milk, keto condensed milk and lime juice.
Add white rum and process until smooth and frothy. You can add a few drops of stevia if you prefer a sweeter taste.
Fill two glasses with ice and pour over the blended coconut mixture. Garnish with lime slices and optionally sprinkle with some unsweetened shredded coconut. Enjoy!
