Coco Lopez - how do you deal with it? - Tiki Drinks and Food

But here's what I do - it's not a big deal at all to me. When opening a new can, either warm it first in a water bath, or just scoop out as much as you can with a spoon. I do the latter and never have any problems. A warm water bath is a hassle. For storage, I keep it in my fridge in a re-closable glass jar (from spaghetti sauce) and then gently warm it in the microwave when I need it. Then I stir it well, and when the evening is done, refrigerate the leftover for the next shindig. I like Coco Lopez because it isn't as processed as the squeeze-tube Coco Real, and some of the other alternatives. Avoid the Coco Lopez Light - the calorie savings come at the expense of flavor and texture - it's not worth buying.
