2 limes
2 cups coconut cream from 2 1/2 cans of full fat coconut milk (Note 1)
8 tbsp organic cane sugar
1/3 c + 1 tsp fresh lime juice
4 strawberries
Directions
Zest the lime
Peel the skin off the limes reserving about 1/2 tsp of grated zest for serving.
Combine the ingredients
In a small saucepan combine 1 and 2/3 cup of coconut cream (refrigerate the remaining 1/3 cup of cream), strips of zest and 7 tbsp of sugar. Bring to a gentle simmer. Cook on a medium low heat stirring occasionally until sugar dissolves and lime infuses the coconut cream, about 5 minutes.
Distribute Posset among dessert glasses
Remove Posset from the heat, stir in 1/3 c lime juice and let it cool to a room temperature. Strain and divide Posset among 4 serving glasses. Chill Posset in a refrigerator until it thickens, about 4 hours or overnight.
Serve
Using a hand whisk, beat the remaining 1/3 c of chilled coconut cream with 1 tbsp of sugar and 1 tsp of lime juice until soft peaks. Top each Posset with a sliced strawberry and a few dollops of whipped cream. Sprinkle with grated lime zest.
