Best Limber De Frambuesa Recipes
LIMBER DE COCO
Originating in Puerto Rico and coming in many flavors, limber is named after the pilot Charles A. Lindbergh, who landed on the island in 1928. According to El Nuevo Día, Puerto Rico's newspaper of record, he was greeted with this delicious frozen juice, which came to be called limber, it's said, after how many on the island pronounced the pilot's name. In New York, this simple dessert may be one of the best things about summers in the Bronx. Serve it in cups - squeeze the cups, take your first lick, then turn the dessert upside-down - or as ice cubes. The cubes are especially nice in coconut-flavored rum after a long day. It's the much-needed cool-off you're yearning for.

Steps:
- In a large bowl or spouted measuring cup, blend or whisk the half-and-half into the sweetened, condensed coconut milk. Add the remaining ingredients and 1/2 cup water and whisk to combine. Pour into small disposable cups and freeze for at least 4 hours, until frozen. (For smaller servings, pour into an ice tray.)
- To serve, squeeze the cup to push the limber up, and eat it directly from the cup. You could also pull it out of the cup and flip it, so the base becomes the top, and eat.
LIMBER DE CREMA
As a kid I felt apprehensive about this this flavor because of the name-- a cream limber just sounded a bit unappetizing. Then I finally tried it, and it quickly became one of my favorites. Subtle notes of cinnamon and milky richness make this one an unforgettable treat.

Steps:
- Place seven 8-ounce plastic cups on a tray small enough to fit into your freezer.
- Combine the evaporated milk, condensed milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and 2 cups water in a blender and blend until homogeneous. Taste the mixture for sweetness and adjust to taste; you may want to add up to an extra tablespoon of sugar.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared plastic cups, filling them to about 1/4 inch from the brim. Sprinkle each cup with a bit of ground cinnamon, if desired. Freeze until fully frozen, at least 8 hours. The limbers will keep in the freezer for up to a month.

Steps:
- Place six 8-ounce plastic cups on a tray small enough to fit into your freezer.
- Combine the coconut milk, pineapple juice, coconut cream, pineapple chunks and sugar in a blender and blend until homogeneous. Taste for sweetness, adding a bit more sugar if you'd like.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared plastic cups, filling them to about 1/4 inch from the brim. Freeze for 1 hour, then stir each one with a small spoon to incorporate the mixture again in case it has separated a bit while sitting; the limbers should be at a slurry stage at this point, which should prevent the mixture from separating again after reincorporating. Continue to freeze until fully frozen, at least another 7 hours. The limbers will keep in the freezer for up to a month.
