Ingredients
  

  • 120 ml Pure Pineapple Juice 100% unsweetened
  • 60 ml Full-Fat Canned Coconut Milk well-shaken
  • 30 ml Cane Sugar Simple Syrup or sweet coconut cream
  • 15 ml Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 cup Fresh Ice Cubes
  • Fresh Pineapple wedges and Maraschino cherries for garnish

Method
 

  1. Frost Your Glass: Place a classic hurricane glass or your favorite serving glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes to frost before you begin.
  2. Emulsify the Coconut Milk: Shake your can of full-fat coconut milk vigorously before opening to ensure the thick cream and liquid layers are perfectly combined.
  3. Layer the Liquids: In your blender base, pour 120 ml of pure pineapple juice, then float 60 ml of rich coconut milk, 30 ml of simple syrup, and 15 ml of fresh lime juice on top.
  4. Add the Ice: Drop 1 cup of clean, solid ice cubes directly into the liquid stack.
  5. The Ultimate Blend: Pulse three times to break down the large ice chunks, then run the blender continuously on high power for 30 to 45 seconds until a gorgeous, thick, pale-yellow froth forms.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Pour the velvety smooth mocktail into your frosted glass. Style elegantly with a fresh pineapple wedge on the rim and a maraschino cherry. Serve immediately with a straw!
