Ingredients
- 2 Ounces Rum Divided
- 2 Cups Ice Divided
- 1 Cup Strawberries Hulled, and Roughly Chopped
- 1 Ounce Lime Juice Freshly Squeezed
- 2 Ounces Cream of Coconut
- 2 Ounces Pineapple Juice
- Pineapple Slices For Garnish, If Desired
Instructions
- In a blender, blend strawberries, lime juice, and rum. Pour into a glass and place in freezer.
- Rinse out blender. Blend rum, pineapple juice, and cream of coconut.
- Pour into glass, swirling if desired. Garnish with a slice of pineapple.
Notes
- Rum: Use white rum. I like Bacardi.
- Cream of Coconut: Look for this in the mixer aisle near the tonic water. Make sure to use cream of coconut, NOT coconut cream.
- Lime Juice: For the best flavor, use freshly squeezed juice if possible.
-
- To get the most juice from your lime, roll it on the counter and microwave for 20-30 seconds.
-
- Get the Slushie Perfect Texture: If using frozen strawberries, use less ice to avoid a watery drink.
- Laying Hack: Pour the second layer over the back of a spoon. This helps slow down the liquid and allows it to spread out without mixing the layers too much.
- Store your glass in the freezer while you blend the second half to keep it icy cold.
