Equipment
- Blender
- Mixer or Whisk
- Serving Glasses
Ingredients
Piña Colada Base
- 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1 cup coconut cream
- ½ cup white or coconut rum optional
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 cup ice cubes
Malibu Frosting
- 1 cup whipping cream
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp Malibu rum or coconut extract for non-alcoholic
- 2 tbsp cream cheese optional, for extra richness
Instructions
- In a blender, combine strawberries, pineapple juice, coconut cream, rum (if using), lime juice, and ice. Blend until smooth and frothy.
- In a chilled bowl, whip the cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Add Malibu rum and cream cheese (if using); continue whipping until stiff peaks form.

Notes
For a mocktail version, skip the rum and use coconut extract in the frosting. Great for brunch, summer parties, or a tropical dessert in a glass.
