Hey sunshine! ☀️ If you’re looking for the ultimate summer drink that’s just as fun to sip as it is to look at, let me introduce you to the Pink Flamingo Piña Colada. It’s fruity, creamy, and refreshingly cold—a total vacation in a glass, whether you’re poolside, beachside, or just chilling in your backyard.
It has all the tropical flavors you love—pineapple, coconut, and lime—with a splash of grenadine to give it that pretty pink twist. Trust me, this is the kind of drink that turns any summer day into a party.
What You’ll Need
Making this beauty is easier than you think. You just need a blender and a few tropical ingredients to bring paradise home.
Ingredients (makes 1 drink):
- 2 oz coconut cream – that thick layer on top of the can is the dreamy stuff
- 1 oz coconut milk – regular or light depending on how rich you want it
- 2 oz pineapple juice – fresh is best for that tropical zing
- 1 oz white rum – pick your favorite brand
- ½ oz lime juice – squeeze it fresh for the best flavor
- ½ oz grenadine – this gives the drink its sweet pink color
- 1 cup crushed ice – for that perfectly smooth, frozen texture
How to Make It
Blend It All Up
Add everything—yes, everything!—into your blender. That includes the coconut cream, coconut milk, pineapple juice, white rum, lime juice, grenadine, and crushed ice.
Blend on high speed until it’s smooth and creamy. The texture should be thick and icy—almost like a frozen smoothie but way more fun.
Time to Serve
Pour your blended Pink Flamingo Piña Colada into your favorite glass (a hurricane glass or stemless wine glass works beautifully). Want to make it even more tropical? Add one or more of these cute garnishes:
- A slice of pineapple
- A maraschino cherry
- A lime wedge
- A tiny cocktail umbrella for full island vibes
Take a Sip and Drift Away
That first icy sip will have you dreaming of hammocks, palm trees, and ocean breezes. It’s fruity, it’s creamy, it’s pink—and it’s perfect. Whether you’re hosting friends, lounging in the sun, or just want to bring the beach to your backyard, this drink delivers serious summer magic.
So grab your blender, toss on your favorite playlist, and whip up a Pink Flamingo Piña Colada. Cheers to sunshine, smiles, and sipping something fabulous!
