Ingredients

- 1/2 cup coconut rum
- 1/2 cup coconut cream
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- Ice
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are fresh and chilled. Prepare a blender and cocktail glasses for serving.

- Add a handful of ice cubes to further chill and thicken the mixture if desired.
- Blend all ingredients on high speed for 30-45 seconds until smooth and fully combined, with a thick, frozen consistency.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or rum content if needed by adding more coconut cream or rum.
- Pour the blended cocktail into chilled glasses, ensuring an even distribution.
- Optional: Garnish with a pineapple wedge, maraschino cherry, or small umbrella for tropical presentation.
- Serve immediately while the cocktail is cold and slushy, enjoying the vibrant tropical flavors.
Tips
- Use high-quality frozen fruit for the best texture and most intense flavor. Fresh-frozen fruits blend more smoothly than previously thawed ones.
- Chill your glasses beforehand to keep the cocktail cold longer and enhance the drinking experience.
- For a non-alcoholic version, replace coconut rum with coconut water or additional coconut cream.
- Experiment with different rum types—white rum or spiced rum can add unique flavor profiles.
- If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of pineapple juice to thin it out without losing flavor.
- For a more Instagram-worthy presentation, rim the glasses with toasted coconut flakes before pouring.
- Always taste and adjust the cocktail before serving—the perfect balance is key to a memorable tropical drink!
