    Virgin Pina Colada Smoothie recipe - Juggling Act Mama

    Ingredients

    To make this amazing healthy smoothie recipe, you just need a few simple ingredients!

    • Coconut cream
    • fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
    • Pineapple Juice
    • Coconut Flakes

    Best Coconut Flakes For Pina Colada Smoothie

    For the coconut flakes, I like to use Let's Do Organic Shredded, Unsweetened Coconut.  I don't mind buying it in bulk since I use it for making granola bars and in cookie recipes frequently.  But if you only want to buy a little, you can find smaller packages at Whole Foods or Trader Joes.

    Frequently Asked Questions

     Where Did Pina Coladas Come From?

    Pina Coladas are a sweet cocktail made with rum, pineapples and coconuts. They have been the national drink of Puerto Rico since 1978! Yup! Pina Coladas were first created in Puerto Rico in the 1970s.

    What is Cream of Coconut?

    Cream of coconut is a smooth, thick liquid made from fresh coconuts. This is what helps gives the pina colada smoothie it's wonderful texture and flavor. It is often found in the ethnic foods section of your grocery store.

    What can I substitue for Cream of Coconut?

    If you need a substitute for cream of coconut you can use ½ cup light cream plus ⅛ teaspoon coconut extract for this recipe.

    Recipe Variations

    • Do you like your pina colada smoothies to be more like a slushie? Then feel free to add more ice! If you prefer to have something that can easily be slurped through a pretty straw, use less ice. It's all up to you!
    • Add a fresh or frozen banana for extra potassium, which helps to make this a great healthy breakfast option.
    • Now should you decide you want to up the ante with this smoothie, you can add in 3 ounces of golden or coconut rum and you have an adult-only treat!
    • Pour this smoothie mixture into a popsicle mold and pop it into the freezer. A couple hours later you'll have healthy pina colada ice pops!

    Notes

    Ice is optional though I love mine to be a bit slushy. Add enough crushed ice to achieve your desired thickness - I find this can vary.

        Cream of coconut is a smooth, thick liquid made from fresh coconuts. It is thick and very sweet and maybe found in the ethnic foods section of your grocery store; look for Goya or Coca Real brands. If you need a substitute for cream of coconut you can use 1/2 cup light cream plus 1/8 teaspoon coconut extract for this recipe. Enjoy!
