Instructions

Chopping the pineapple

First step is to peel and slice the pineapple. I used half of a medium pineapple and got about 2 cups chopped pineapple wedges.

Making pina colada

Add the wedges or cubes in a blender jar.
Add sugar. You can also skip sugar if you like.
Blend to a fine and smooth puree. There should be no pineapple chunks in the puree.
Add the thick coconut milk. You can also use coconut cream, but add some water or coconut water to thin the consistency a bit.
Next add in about 4 to 6 small ice cubes. You could omit adding ice cubes if you prefer.
Blend once more till smooth and everything is mixed evenly.
Pour Virgin Pina Colada drink in glasses and serve immediately. You can garnish with pineapple wedges if you like.

Notes

Ensure to use fresh, ripe and sweet tasting pineapple. Do not use tangy or semi-sweet pineapple as this can lead to digestion problems.
Also preferably, use fresh pineapple. Tinned pineapple tends to include extra sugar which makes the pina colada incredibly sweet and not as flavorful.
Feel free to add sweetener of your choice.
Opt to garnish pina colada, with fresh mint sprigs, cherries or pineapple slices.
