Ingredients
Scale
- 2 oz (60 ml) white rum
- 3 oz (90 ml) coconut cream (canned, not coconut milk)
- 4 oz (120 ml) pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup (75 g) fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 cup (240 ml) ice cubes
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) simple syrup (optional)
- 1 tsp (5 ml) fresh lime juice
- Pineapple wedges and maraschino cherries for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients: measure out rum, coconut cream, pineapple juice, pineapple chunks, simple syrup (if using), and lime juice.
- Add all ingredients including ice cubes to the blender jar and secure the lid tightly.
- Blend starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high for 30-45 seconds until smooth and creamy with no large ice chunks.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity by adding more simple syrup or lime juice if desired, then blend briefly again.
- Serve immediately in chilled hurricane or tall glasses, garnished with pineapple wedges and maraschino cherries.
Notes
Use canned coconut cream for best texture; if too solid, soften by stirring or microwaving briefly. Adjust ice quantity to balance thickness. Chill glasses before serving for extra refreshment. Avoid over-blending to maintain creamy texture. Substitute almond or oat milk for coconut cream for a lighter, dairy-free version. Omit rum for a non-alcoholic mocktail.
