Ingredients
-
1 cup frozen raspberries

½ cup coconut cream (not coconut milk!)
-
½ cup white rum (adjust to taste)

1 cup crushed ice

1 tbsp simple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)

Instructions

Add to Blender: Pour in pineapple juice, coconut cream, and rum first. Then add frozen raspberries, crushed ice, and simple syrup if using.
-
Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high for 30–60 seconds until creamy, thick, and slushie-perfect.
-
Taste & Adjust: Add more syrup for sweetness, more ice for thickness, or more rum if you’re feeling bold.
-
Serve & Garnish: Pour into a chilled glass and top with your favorite garnishes — think fresh berries, pineapple, or a little coconut on top.
-
Sip & Escape: Close your eyes and enjoy every tropical sip. Paradise = unlocked.
Notes
-
No frozen raspberries? Use fresh, but add extra ice for texture.
-
Want a mocktail? Skip the rum and add coconut water or more pineapple juice.
-
Make it extra: Float a splash of dark rum on top for richer flavor and that layered cocktail look.
-
Batch it for parties: Blend everything but the ice ahead of time and keep chilled. Add ice and re-blend just before serving.
-
Serve it with: Grilled shrimp, tacos, or anything with a tropical twist!
