Raspberry Colada Twist blends creamy coconut with tangy raspberry for a fun tropical beverage—perfect for mocktails or cocktails during beach days or relaxing at home.

  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • 3/4 cup chilled pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream
  • 12 oz white rum (optional)
  • 1 cup crushed ice
  • Optional garnishes: fresh raspberry, pineapple wedge, mint sprig, shredded coconut rim

Instructions

  1. Chill your glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. Optional: rim with toasted coconut or crushed freeze-dried raspberries.
  2. In a blender, combine frozen raspberries, pineapple juice, coconut cream, white rum (if using), and crushed ice. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Adjust sweetness with honey or simple syrup, and tanginess with a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Add extra pineapple juice if too thick.
  4. Pour into chilled glass, garnish with whipped cream, fresh raspberry, pineapple wedge, or shredded coconut.
  5. Optional: create a frozen layered effect by blending raspberries separately from the coconut-pineapple base, or add a frozen banana/vanilla yogurt for creamier texture. Swap berries for your preferred fruit.

Notes

  • Perfect for poolside chilling, girls’ night in, tropical brunches, or romantic sunsets on the patio.
  • Mocktail version: skip the rum entirely.
