  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 6–8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups diced pineapple (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 cups strawberries, sliced
  • ¼ cup frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 1½ cups cream of coconut (such as Coco Lopez)
  • 1½ to 2 cups coconut rum (adjust to your party’s vibe)
  • 3–4 cups crushed or nugget ice
  • Optional: splash of pineapple juice or club soda for a lighter twist
  • Garnish: pineapple wedges, strawberry slices, cocktail umbrellas, or anything festive

Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Fruit

Wash and slice your strawberries. If you’re using fresh pineapple, dice it into small chunks. Frozen fruit works just as well and helps chill the punch naturally.

Step 2: Blend the Tropical Base

In a blender, combine the diced pineapple, sliced strawberries, orange juice concentrate, cream of coconut, and coconut rum. Blend until smooth and creamy. If your blender is small, do this in batches.

Step 3: Add Ice and Blend Again

Add the crushed or nugget ice to the blender. Pulse until the mixture reaches a thick, slushy consistency. You can add more ice for a frostier texture or reduce it slightly if you prefer a thinner consistency.

Step 4: Taste and Adjust

Give the punch a taste. Want more citrus zing? Add a bit more orange concentrate. Need it stronger? A splash more rum. Want it lighter? A bit of pineapple juice or club soda will make it more sippable and fizzy.

Step 5: Serve and Garnish

Pour the punch into a large pitcher or punch bowl. Serve in glasses garnished with pineapple wedges, strawberry slices, and cocktail umbrellas for full-on vacation vibes.

Notes

  • Use cream of coconut, not coconut milk. Cream of coconut is sweet and thick, and it’s key for that classic piña colada flavor.
  • If using frozen fruit, you might need less ice.
  • Blending in stages helps you control the final texture. Don’t over-blend or it may turn too thin.
  • If your blender struggles with all the ingredients, blend the fruit first and then gradually add the liquid and ice.
