What is "nata de coco"?
I have this Asian drink that I love that is part lychee juice (but they make it in tangerine and strawberry too) and has something called "nata de coco" "blended" in with it. There are chunks of something fruit-like suspended in the drink. It's delicious, but was wondering what it is. Thanks for your help.
