This is the tropical frozen drink without the rum: sweet pineapple, rich coconut cream and a squeeze of lime, blended with ice until thick and slushy. Frozen pineapple does most of the work, so the drink is cold and creamy straight from the blender. It is a good choice for pool days and barbecues when children and adults want the same glass. Serve it with a wide straw and a pineapple wedge.
Instructions
- Stir the canned coconut cream well, since the thick cream sits on top, and measure out 80 ml (1/3 cup).
- Pour the pineapple juice, coconut cream and lime juice into the blender. Add the frozen pineapple and the ice.
- Blend on high for 60 seconds until smooth and thick like a slushy. Stop once to stir if the mixture sticks around the blades.
- Taste, and blend in the maple syrup if the pineapple is on the tart side.
- Pour into two chilled glasses and garnish each with a pineapple wedge and a lime slice. Serve immediately.
Tips
- Chill the glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes first, so the drink stays frosty longer.
- Light coconut milk gives a lighter drink, but it will be less creamy. Stir canned coconut products well before measuring.
Questions and answers
Can I use fresh pineapple?
Yes. Freeze the chunks for 3 hours first, or use fresh pineapple with 2 cups of ice. The drink will be a little thinner.
Can I make a big batch for a party?
Yes, but blend in batches and serve immediately, because the drink melts quickly. Pre-measure the ingredients into bags and freeze them for fast blending.
How do I stop the drink from separating?
Serve it right away and stir if it settles. Well-mixed coconut cream and fully frozen fruit help hold the texture.
