THE LAVA FLOW DRINK
#Recipes #drink >> #cookies >> #pasta >> #food >> #chocolate >> #keto >> #bread >> #easy >> #vegetarian >> #cake >> #healthy >> #cooking

 INGREDIENTS
  •  3 1/2 cups pineapple juice
  •  2 cans (15-ounces each) cream of coconut (like Coco Lopez brand)
  •  1 cup half-and-half, fat-free or regular
  •  24 ounces frozen strawberries in syrup, slightly thawed until slushy in texture
  •  Ice
  •  Fresh pineapple for garnish, if desired


 INSTRUCTIONS
  • In a blender, puree the slightly thawed strawberries with 1/2 cup water. The mixture should be syrupy and thick. Transfer to a liquid measure, bowl or pitcher and set aside.
  • In a pitcher, whisk together the pineapple juice, cream of coconut and half-and-half.
  • In a blender (washed from pureeing the strawberries), fill up halfway with ice. Pour in the coconut/pineapple mixture until it comes up to an even height with the ice. Blend until slushy (add more coconut/pineapple mixture if it is too thick to blend easily).
  • Pour about an inch of the strawberry syrup mixture into a cup. Pour the icy coconut/pineapple mixture into the center of the strawberry mixture in the cup until the cup is filled. If desired, gently swirl the mixture with a straw.
  • Garnish with fresh pineapple, if desired, and serve immediately.

NOTES
Cream of Coconut: I have always found the cream of coconut in the mixed drinks aisle (the cream of coconut is non-alcoholic).

 Keeping it Cold: refrigerate each component after blending to keep them really cold before assembling the drinks but don't make too far ahead because the icy components in a few of the steps will melt.
