Note

For a thicker consistency, reduce the amount of soya milk slightly or add a teaspoon of agar-agar or cornstarch slurry and warm the mixture gently before blending.

You can enhance the flavor by adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of almond extract to the blender.

If you prefer a less sweet dessert, rinse the canned apricots briefly under cold water to remove excess syrup before draining.

This cream can be served immediately, but chilling it improves the texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

For a decorative touch, garnish with fresh apricot slices, mint leaves, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts before serving.
