Expert Tips

Follow my simple tips for a perfectly fruity and creamy strawberry colada!

• It's best to use frozen strawberries and frozen pineapple rather than fresh fruit. This is because frozen fruit helps to thicken the cocktail, giving it the texture of a thick and creamy milkshake or slushie!
• Use a Thermomix, food processor or a blender to make frozen strawberry pina coladas.
• You can use either coconut cream or coconut milk. Coconut cream has a thicker, creamier texture.
• Any variety of white/light rum can be used to make coladas. Personally, I recommend using either Bacardi or Malibu.
• Continue mixing until the cocktail is completely smooth, thick and combined.
• Serve immediately with a garnish of fresh strawberries.
