The difference between coconut cream, coconut milk and light coconut milk is the water content. Often all three cost the same, hence I opt for the coconut cream. To turn a store bought coconut cream into milk, simply mix it half & half with water. If you are after a light version, mix 3 parts water with 1 part coconut cream. Fine-tune a little bit until you find your perfect ratios depending on your taste and the brand you’re using.
