One of my all time favourite cocktails is the humble Pina Colada. Whilst in it’s alcoholic form it is amazing; in it’s ‘virgin’ state it is still mighty fine! Whilst the 10th July is officially Pina Colada Day… in my world… every day is Pina Colada Day!
You might remember I put up a Virgin Pina Colada Smoothie recipe a few months ago. Click here to view it. But since then, I guess we have perfected it even more & made it even more coconuterly awesome! So, why not make a video out of it?! Here is the NEW recipe. I hope you get to give this beauty a go!
Pina Colada Day Smoothie!
Ingredients
- 1 Medium Pineapple chopped up or use a pineapple corer like mine in the video!
- 1/2 can of Coconut Milk
- 1 Frozen Banana only a SMALL banana, maybe use a little less if it's a big one!
- 3-4 Coconut Water Ice Cubes I used Vita Coco original - My Ice Cubes were large!
- Tiny Squeeze of Lime optional - it definitely tastes perfect without too!
Instructions
-
Pour your coconut water into ice cube trays and place in the freezer for a couple of hours or until frozen.

I will always have a mighty soft spot for a Pina Colada, it is one of the worlds greatest cocktails & to be able to enjoy it whenever I fancy in a non alcoholic form is amazing. It tastes too good to be just a few simple ingredients!
