Raw Vanilla Ice Cream

I tried this with one coconut instead of three young coconuts.? It turned out pretty good.? It had a great flavor but the texcure wasn’t creamy.? I’m guessing if I would have been able to find young coconuts the texture would have been creamy.? I have a feeling I will make this often.? at first I was pretty sceptical but I thought I’d try it anyway.? It’s really quit tasty.
