Description
This Lime After Lime Colada is a creamy frozen citrus cocktail that blends fresh lime juice, coconut cream, and crushed ice into one frosty, tangy-sweet summer dream. A playful twist on the piña colada, this drink skips the pineapple and goes all-in on lime for a bold, refreshing treat. Serve it boozy with white rum or keep it alcohol-free—either way, it’s a total crowd-pleaser that takes just 5 minutes and a blender. Perfect for poolside sipping, backyard hangouts, or whenever you’re craving a tropical escape in a glass!

Notes
For a frostier texture, pre-freeze your coconut cream in ice cube trays.
To create a layered swirl effect, blend the coconut cream and lime juice mixture separately, then gently swirl together in your glass.
No rum? No problem! This mocktail version is just as bright and refreshing.
Bottled lime juice works in a pinch, but fresh juice gives the best flavor by far.
