Piña Colada Slushie

This piña colada slushie is a frozen beverage made by blending fresh pineapple, coconut milk, and ice until smooth and icy. The result is a creamy, refreshingly thick slushie with vibrant tropical flavor and a soft, scoopable texture. It can be customized with add-ins like rum or spices for extra flair.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks preferably frozen overnight for best texture
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk full-fat for creaminess
  • 1 cup ice cubes add more if needed for thickness
  • 2 tbsp sugar or honey optional, for sweetness

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Add the frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, ice cubes, and sweetener to the blender.
  2. Secure the lid and blend on high speed for about 30-45 seconds, until the mixture is smooth and icy, with some small ice shards remaining for texture.
  3. Pause blending to check consistency—if it's too thick, add a splash more coconut milk; if too thin, add a few more ice cubes and blend again.
  4. Once the slushie is creamy and scoopable with a slightly granular texture, turn off the blender.
  5. Scoop the frozen mixture into chilled glasses, allowing the icy swirls and vibrant color to show.
  6. Finish with a pineapple wedge or a maraschino cherry for a tropical touch, and serve immediately to enjoy its refreshing chill.

Notes

For an alcoholic version, stir in a splash of rum before serving. For extra flavor, sprinkle with toasted coconut or add a pinch of cinnamon.
