Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe medium banana
  • 4 ounces coconut rum (divided use)
  • ¾ cup frozen strawberries
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 4 ounces coconut cream (not coconut milk)
  • 4 ounces pineapple juice
  • 1 cup ice cubes (see notes on size)
  • Optional - pineapple wedges and paper umbrellas for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Peel and slice 1 banana into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Put them in a single layer on the baking sheet and freeze for about an hour.
  • Place 2 large glasses in the freezer to chill.
  • At the same time, blend 2 ounces of coconut rum, strawberries, and sugar in a blender to form a smooth slush.
  • Pour the mixture into two tall glasses, divided evenly.
  • Rinse the blender.
  • Add the frozen bananas, 2 ounces of coconut rum, coconut cream, and the pineapple juice into the blender with the ice cubes. Blend until smooth.
  • Carefully pour the mixture into the glasses containing the strawberry mixture, ensuring even distribution. The strawberry mixture will rise along the sides of the glass, creating a flowing lava effect.
  • Garnish with a pineapple wedge and paper umbrella, if desired. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • This drink has a wonderfully creamy texture, and freezing the banana slices helps keep it nice and cold for longer! When you blend frozen bananas, they transform into a delightful, soft-serve consistency that's just irresistible.
  • A frosty glass is a fun way to keep your favorite drinks chilled for even longer! Plus, that icy frost on the outside makes everything look extra tempting and refreshing so that you can enjoy your beverages in style!
