Creamy Piña Colada

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Drinks
The liquid definition of a tropical vacation. The secret is emulsion: coconut fat, pineapple acidity/fiber, and ice blended into a creamy 'milkshake' for adults. Done right, it's not a watery mess, but silky and smooth.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Blender
  • Hurricane glass

Allergen Information

⚠️ Coconut (Tree Nut)

Instructions

1 ✓

Place all ingredients (rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream, ice) into the blender.

Tip: If you have fresh pineapple chunks, add a few; the fibers help stabilize the foam.
2 ✓

Blend on high until the ice disappears completely and you have a uniform, creamy drink.

Tip: Crushing the ice chills and thickens the drink. If too thin, add more ice.
3 ✓

Pour into a glass and garnish with the pineapple wedge.

Tip: If not consumed immediately, it may separate (coconut fat rises). Give it a stir!

Recipe FAQ

Can I use regular milk?
Not worth it. Coconut cream gives the distinctive flavor and thick texture. Cow's milk makes it thin and bland.

  • 2 oz White Rum
