Easy, Alcohol-Free Piña Colada Smoothie

It’s finally warm outside and I am treating myself a drink. Well, a virgin drink.

Hardly an effort to make, this easy, alcohol-free piña colada smoothie will make you feel like you’re sitting on a sandy island, with your toes flirting with the warm, white sand.

I am actually on my porch, watching my tomato plant not grow, but you know, I can dream.

This recipe doesn’t need any extra stuff. Just get the canned cream of coconut and some frozen pineapple. If you need something sweeter, just drop in sugar – but really – there’s no need. Cream of coconut is sweet enough on its own.

Feel free to tweak the recipe if you want to. It’s great on its own, but if you’re looking for something with a little more buzz to it, try adding white rum to this recipe. A shot will do. If you want it more frosty, add more ice. For something thinner, just reduce the ice. No biggie.

Ready to feel like you’re on an island? Let’s get to the recipe!
