Easy Pina Colada Slurpee Ingredients
The Homemade Pina Colada Slurpee requires a total of 7 ingredients. Here is a breakdown of each ingredient and its role in the recipe:
- Frozen Pineapple: This is the main fruit used in the recipe. It provides the sweet, tropical flavor that is characteristic of a Pina Colada. you’ll need a 12 oz bag frozen pineapple, or about 3 cups.
- Cream of Coconut: This ingredient is responsible for giving the drink its creamy texture and rich coconut flavor. If cream of coconut is not available, coconut milk can be used as a substitute. You’ll need about 15 oz.
- Frozen Banana: Adding 1 frozen banana to the recipe helps to thicken the drink and adds a natural creaminess. If you use a really ripe banana it will also help naturally sweeten the drink!
- Vanilla Extract: Just 1 tsp vanilla enhances the overall flavor of the drink and adds a subtle sweetness.
- Honey: 2 TBSP of this natural sweetener is used to balance out the acidity of the pineapple and add a touch of sweetness.
- Ice: 3 cups ice is used to create the Slurpee texture and make the drink cold and refreshing.
- Coconut Pineapple Sparkling Water: This ingredient adds a bubbly, refreshing element to the drink and helps to enhance the tropical flavors. I used a 17-oz ICE drink, but you can use any type as long as you have about 15 oz and it’s pineapple coconut flavored.
All of these ingredients are easy to find and can be purchased at any grocery store. Once you have all the ingredients, the recipe is quick and easy to make. The combination of sweet pineapple, creamy coconut, and bubbly sparkling water makes for a refreshing and delicious summer drink.
