What brand of coconut extract is everyone using for recipes?
In the past I used to buy the little 1 ounce bottles of McCormick, but could never really detect any coconut flavor that I can remember. I looked around Amazon and not one of the many extracts had a favorable rating - they were either too full of sugar, had oil, reeked of alcohol, or just had no real coconut flavor.
The last time I bought any was probably before Amazon even existed, that's how long ago. I'm not adverse to shopping on-line, just don't want to waste my money ($16 an ounce?!? Are they kidding??) on a flavoring that has no flavor or isn't healthy.
How important *is* a bit of coconut flavor in something like Mary McDougall's Thai Green Curry Rice?

That's probably the only occasion I would ever use the extract. We're not fans of coconut in this family to begin with - the last time any of us had any was maybe 40 or so years ago in a Mounds bar. Would that recipe be just as good without the extract in the almond milk?
