Notes
Crushed ice is key for that perfect frozen consistency—don’t use cubes.
Gel food coloring gives strong colors without watering down the mix.
You can prep the base ahead and freeze each color separately—just stir or re-blend before layering.
Want a non-alcoholic version? Use pear nectar, strawberry syrup with cream, and coconut milk. It’s just as magical!
This cocktail doesn’t store well once assembled, so build your layers right before serving.
