Virgin Piña Colada

PIÑA COLADA MOCKTAIL. NO ALCOHOL. ALL TASTE.

Want to indulge in the delicious and refreshing taste of a Piña Colada, without the alcohol? Look no further! The Piña Colada Mocktail is your ultimate summertime drink.

While the traditional Piña Colada is made with our favourite Malibu white rum (OK, we may be a little biased), this frozen burst of fresh-tasting pineapple and condensed milk gives you all the tropical sweetness you’ll ever need. Making it the ideal alcohol-free alternative to the classic that everyone at the party can enjoy.

And since it’s so easy to make at home or on the go, with less than 5 minutes from start to tasty finish, it’s the perfect mocktail to enjoy at BBQs, park hangs and picnics, backyard pool parties or any other occasion on a hot summer’s day. Simply whip this up, slap your shades on and you’ll instantly be chilling in style, wherever you are.

Can I make my Piña Colada Mocktail less sweet?

We get it, not everyone likes it as sweet as us! To reduce the sweetness of your Piña Colada Mocktail, we suggest using less condensed milk or adding more ice and pineapple juice. Simply play around and adjust to taste until you find the right balance.

How can I make the Piña Colada Mocktail thicker?

If you want a thicker consistency, just throw more frozen pineapple or ice into the blender. Pro tip: you can also freeze the pineapple juice beforehand for extra frostiness.

Can I add extra flavors to my Piña Colada Mocktail?

For sure! Our cocktail pros recommend adding a squeeze of lime juice for a unique twist. But you can get as creative as you like.

What’s the best garnish for the Piña Colada Mocktail?

How pro do you want to go? A fresh pineapple wedge is a classic garnish. You can sprinkle a bit of shredded coconut on top too. If you want to go all in, our cocktail pros suggest you rim your glass with a mixture of toasted coconut flakes and sugar. This adds texture and a sweet, nutty flavor to each sip. Yum!

Can I use fresh pineapple instead of frozen in the Piña Colada Mocktail?

Yep, but we recommend using frozen pineapple, as it helps give it that iconic thick and slushy Piña Colada texture. If you’re using fresh pineapple, simply add more ice in the blender to compensate.

How do I prevent the Piña Colada Mocktail from separating?

No one likes separation! To keep the ingredients well-mixed, our tip is to blend thoroughly and serve immediately. If separation does happen, simply give the drink a quick stir or re-blend.

What can I do if my Piña Colada Mocktail is too thick?

According to our cocktail pros, the best way to thin out your Piña Colada Mocktail is to simply add more pineapple juice or a splash of water. Then blend it again until you reach your perfect consistency.

What glass is best for the Virgin Pina Colada?

For the perfect Virgin Piña Colada drink, we recommend serving in a Hurricane or tiki glass. These tall, curved glasses showcase the drink’s vibrant creamy colour and allow space for classic garnishes like a pineapple wedge or cherry. You can find Hurricane glasses at most kitchenware stores or online retailers!

More tips from our cocktail pros:

Serve immediately! The Piña Colada Mocktail is best enjoyed right after blending to maintain its frosty texture. If it starts to melt, we suggest giving it a quick blend with a little extra ice.

Use crushed ice! For a deliciously smoother, slushy consistency, we recommend using crushed ice. It blends more easily with the other ingredients, giving that classic Piña Colada texture.

Adjust the sweetness! Condensed milk adds that yummy sweetness to the Piña Colada Mocktail, but you can adjust it to your preference. If you think it’s too sweet, we suggest adding a bit more pineapple juice or ice to balance the flavors.

Chill your glass! Our tip is to chill your glass in the freezer for about 15 minutes before pouring in the Piña Colada Mocktail. This helps keep the drink delightfully cold.

Experiment with ice cubes! We suggest you try freezing pineapple juice. This keeps the Piña Colada Mocktail cold without diluting the flavor as the ice melts.
