thank you, the three of you, for your replies. Once again, I am humbled by the detailed posts and sad for living too far from the New World, where Rum is used not only for Cuba Libra.

Dogbytes and Traitor - thank you for clarifying the terminology. This is a fuzzy subject here in Israel, as there are no regulations regarding translated terminology. Well, maybe there are, but the dodgy importers from the East conveniently ignore them. Anyway, both canned products I have contain coconut water and H2O, however, the can labeled as coconut milk has a 17% fat and the coconut cream one has some 27% fat, which means that both are "heavier" than Lopez.

(I have a feeling that the "coconut water" also includes processed coconut meat, due to the high fat precentage).

Ahu, thank you for the offer, but really, the postage price does not worth it. Despite my man's hesitations, I will make a trip to the kitchen, take out the pans for a change and experiment.
I need to experiment anyway, with the pomegranate concentrate I bought in lieu of synthetic gerandine.
