Virgin Pina Colada
Ingredients
- 3 ounces pineapple juice
- 2 ounces cream of coconut
- 1 ounce heavy cream or full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1 pineapple wedge for garnish
- 1 maraschino cherry for garnish
Instructions
- Add the pineapple juice, cream of coconut, cream and ice to a blender.
- Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds, until completely smooth with no visible ice chunks.
- Check the consistency by tipping the blender slightly: it should pour slowly, like a thick smoothie.
- Pour into a hurricane glass or other tall footed glass.
- Garnish with a pineapple wedge and cherry speared on a cocktail pick.
- Serve immediately with a wide straw.
Good to Know
This one does not hold well once blended; make it to order rather than ahead, or the texture separates in the glass.
