Virgin Pina Colada

So nice. So easy to make. After having this out at a restaurant, I decided I had to recreate it at home - pretty easy to do, with only 3 ingredients. This can easily be up-scaled for as many people as you like. Coconut cream is basically a thicker, more indulgent form of coconut milk, and is also a great ingredient for Thai and other oriental cuisine. One thing to remember - you may need to heat it slightly as it can separate into liquid and solid quite easily at a cool room temperature.

Virgin Pina Colada
Serves: 1
Prep time: 5 minutes

Ingredients
200ml pineapple juice
60ml coconut cream
A cup of crushed ice

Method

1. Combine all ingredients in a jug - for the crushed ice, I literally just put some ice in a freezer bag and wacked it with a rolling pin (not all blenders/choppers can break up icecubes)
2. Blend on a high setting for a few seconds, until foamy and smooth.
3. Serve in a tall glass, garnished with a cherry and a pineapple wedge.
4. Best enjoyed cold.
