  4. Stir in the juice and zest of one lemon into butter mixture.
  5. Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl and add to butter mixture alternately with milk, mixing until batter is well incorporated.
  6. Fold in the coconut, mixing just enough to evenly combine.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (about 60 minutes).
  9. Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
  10. Gradually stir 2 teaspoons of lemon juice into confectioners' sugar in a bowl until mixture is thin enough to drizzle and transfer mixture to a resealable plastic bag. Cut a small hole in the corner of the bag and gently squeeze bag and drizzle mixture evenly over the loaf.
