  1. Add to blender: Combine frozen pineapple, white rum, coconut cream, ice, and optional heavy cream and lime juice in a high-speed blender.
  2. Blend until smooth: Blend until creamy and thick, like a tropical slushie.
  3. Serve chilled: Pour into a chilled hurricane or highball glass.

Notes

  • Non-alcoholic option: Swap rum for coconut water or pineapple juice for a refreshing virgin Piña Colada.
