Method

Cocktail

Chill glass

If desired, chill a hurricane or highball glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes while you prepare the drink.

Combine ingredients

In a cocktail shaker or blender, add the white rum (2 oz), coconut cream (1 oz), and pineapple juice (3 oz).

Add ice

If using a shaker: add 4 whole ice cubes. If making a frozen-style Pina Colada in a blender: add the 1.5 cups crushed ice to the blender with the liquid ingredients.

Sweetness check (optional)

Taste a small sample (or pulse a small amount in the blender). If the pineapple juice and coconut cream are not sweet enough for your preference, add 0.25 oz simple syrup and mix again.

Shake or blend

Shaker method: Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until well chilled and slightly frothy. Strain over a glass filled with crushed ice. Blender method: Blend on medium-high for 10–20 seconds until smooth and slushy, then pour into the chilled glass.

Finish & garnish

Garnish with a pineapple slice and a cherry on a pick. Optionally squeeze the half lime wedge over the top for a touch of acidity and drop the wedge into the glass.

Serving

Serve immediately with a straw and an optional cocktail umbrella. Enjoy chilled.
