Strawberry Pina Colada


  • Author: Jennifer
  • Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups frozen strawberries: Frozen strawberries add the perfect icy texture, making this drink thick and frosty without watering it down with ice.
  • 1 cup pineapple juice: Sweet and tart, pineapple juice is the base of the Pina Colada, bringing in that tropical, citrusy kick.
  • ½ cup coconut milk (or coconut cream for extra richness): Coconut milk gives this drink a rich, creamy texture that makes it feel like a true indulgence.
  • 1 ½ ounces white rum: The traditional spirit for a Pina Colada, white rum adds a subtle kick and ties all the flavors together. Feel free to skip the rum for a non-alcoholic version!
  • 1 tablespoon honey or simple syrup: This adds just the right amount of sweetness, especially if your strawberries are a little tart.
  • Ice (optional): If you want your drink extra thick and icy, add a handful of ice cubes. Otherwise, the frozen strawberries will do the trick!
  • Garnishes (optional): Fresh strawberries, pineapple wedges, and a cocktail umbrella make for a beautiful and festive presentation.

Instructions

  • Prepare the ingredients
    Start by gathering all your ingredients. You want to make sure your frozen strawberries are ready to go. If you don’t have frozen strawberries, you can use fresh ones, but be sure to add a handful of ice cubes to get that frozen, slushy texture.
  • Add to the blender
    Place the frozen strawberries, pineapple juice, and coconut milk into your blender. If you’re using coconut cream for a richer drink, feel free to add that instead! Add your white rum and honey or simple syrup to taste. If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can add a bit more honey.
  • Blend until smooth
    Start blending on a low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If it’s too thick, you can add a splash of pineapple juice or coconut milk to thin it out. If you like it extra thick, add a handful of ice cubes and blend again until frosty.
  • Taste and adjust
    Give the mixture a taste and adjust the sweetness or rum level according to your preference. If you like it sweeter, add a little more honey. If you want more of a coconut flavor, add a little more coconut milk. Don’t be afraid to tweak it until it’s just right!
  • Serve
    Pour the Strawberry Pina Colada into glasses. Garnish with fresh strawberries, a pineapple wedge, or even a fun cocktail umbrella for an extra tropical touch.
  • Enjoy
    Now comes the best part—sipping your creation! Grab a straw, close your eyes, and pretend you’re on a warm beach with a gentle breeze. Cheers!
