Ingredients

Scale

Frozen Base:

2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
1 cup coconut cream
1 cup white rum
1½ cups pineapple juice
Ice (as needed to blend and chill)

Garnish:

Maraschino cherries
Pineapple wedges
Fresh mint leaves
Optional: paper umbrellas, lime slices, fun cocktail straws

Instructions

Blend the frozen base:
In a high-powered blender, combine frozen pineapple, coconut cream, white rum, pineapple juice, and a handful of ice. Blend until thick and smooth. Adjust with more ice or juice as needed for perfect slush consistency.
Choose your bowl:
Pour the frozen cocktail mixture into a large serving bowl or, for a fun twist, a hollowed-out pineapple. Chill the bowl in the freezer beforehand to keep everything frosty longer.
Garnish with flair:
Top with maraschino cherries, fresh pineapple wedges, mint sprigs, and anything else that makes you feel like you’re on vacation. Paper umbrellas and citrus slices are always welcome.

Serve and share:
Hand out long straws, mini cups, or small ladles and let everyone scoop and sip. It’s festive, it’s fun, and it’s made to bring people together!

Notes

Non-alcoholic option: Omit the rum and replace with extra pineapple juice and a splash of coconut milk for a family-friendly mocktail bowl.
Best texture tip: Use frozen pineapple chunks, not fresh, for that ultra-creamy, slushy consistency.
Make ahead: Blend the mix and freeze in an airtight container. Let sit at room temp for 10–15 minutes, then re-blend before serving.
Serving ideas: This pairs beautifully with grilled shrimp, fresh fruit platters, or spicy tacos for a total tropical moment.

Presentation tip: Keep your serving bowl chilled in the freezer until you’re ready to pour in the drink to keep it colder, longer.
