- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Mix until well combined.
- Combine Liquids: In a medium saucepan, pour in the orange juice, coconut milk, and heavy cream. Stir in the dry ingredients slowly while whisking to avoid lumps.

Notes
- Chill Thoroughly: Ensure the dessert is thoroughly chilled before serving for the best texture.
- Experiment with Flavors: You can add other tropical fruits like mango or pineapple to enhance the flavor.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the mixture before cooling to adjust the sweetness according to your preference.
- Presentation: Serve in clear glasses to showcase the vibrant color, and for an added tropical touch, consider using a coconut shell as a serving bowl.
