Nothing beats this classic drink recipe. You may have noticed that I talked about this delicious drink in my blog post titled, March Recap Spring 2021 because this drink was one of my favourite things to drink while I was pregnant. Re: Virgin Piña Colada!
I made this drink often while pregnant, and people ridiculed me for drinking it because they thought I was drinking its alcoholic cousin. Seriously, who do you think I am?! To this day, I rarely drink alcohol because I really don’t see what’s so great about drinking nail polish remover. Sorry, not sorry! Alcohol does not taste good to me and I have to drink it with loads of sugar to make it more palatable 😝 So if you came here for the alcoholic version of this drink, feel free to add your own alcohol. For the rest of you who enjoy Shirley Temples and other fun non-alcoholic drinks, you are in for a treat today. My sans alcohol version of the classic Piña Colada has been tested and approved by myself and my family. Cheers! 🍍🥥
Virgin Piña Colada
Servings: 1 Time: 2 minutes Difficulty: easy
INGREDIENTS
- 4 tbsp. crushed pineapple
- 1/3 can low fat coconut milk
- 2-3 tbsp. pineapple juice
- 6 ice cubes
DIRECTIONS
- Using a personal blender (I use a Nutri Ninja), add the crushed pineapple, pineapple juice and coconut milk. Quickly pulse the ingredients. Using a spoon, taste to make sure the coconut balances the pineapple. If flavours are balanced, continue to step #2.
- Add the ice. Personally, I like my drink very iced so I use 6 cubes. Slowly add a few ice cubes and pulse. Then add a few more ice cubes so the blender doesn’t get jammed. When the desired consistency is reached, it is ready to drink.
- Pour into a fancy glass and add a milkshake straw (optional).

Yum! Sounds good and refreshing.
It’s perfect year-round and it’s so easy to make! Thanks for reading! 🙂
Yummy! Any tropical drink it a hit with me. No alcohol required 🙂
Same here! The only tropical drink I don’t like is the pineapple-coconut smoothie from MCDs. It’s gross, so I much rather make it myself! Either than that, tropical drinks are a hit with me too!🍍🥥🌴
My uncle calls them Pina colonics! Lol
Oh my! Are they really that effective? 🤔🤣
I don’t know. Besides he makes a lot of poop jokes anyway
“If you like piña coladas, and getting caught in the rain…” 🍍🍹🎶
“And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne…” 🥂🌊🎶
It makes me happy when bloggers sing together.
🤤 thanks for sharing!
Thanks for reading! 😇
I loveeee a pina colada and all the ingredients so I’d love to try this Virgin alternative! I’m not surprised you drank this loads whilst you were pregnant!
It’s one of my favorite summer (and winter drinks). It’s good any time of the year and it’s so easy to make. I hope you get a chance to make it sometime ♥️
I loveeeee piña colada so this must be deliicious 😍😜 I have to try!
Definitely try making it sometime! It’s so easy to make and tastes so good! 🍍🥥
One of my favourite drinks! I used to make them all the time but recently I’ve gotten too lazy to make my own lol.
Same here, Pooja! I can relate on so many levels. I’ve gotten lazy too. I’ll still drink cold beverages in the middle of winter as long as I don’t have to make them myself, like Iced Capps. 😂
Yes! This is my favourite drink! I always order it since I typically don’t drink unless I’m with hubby when I’m out. My friends always tease. 🤣 I shall give it a try. 🤞🏽
I hope you like it! 😄 Cheers! 🍍🥥
