Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled (frozen works too, just reduce ice slightly)
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks canned in juice works as an alternative
  • 3/4 cup coconut cream not cream of coconut, which is sweetened
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk for added creaminess
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice brightens all flavors
  • 1 1/2 cups ice cubes
  • Pineapple wedges, strawberries, or maraschino cherries for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Wash and hull the strawberries, ensuring all green parts are removed. For pineapple, use fresh chunks or drain canned pineapple while reserving a tablespoon of juice for added flavor.
  • Add coconut cream and milk to the blender first, followed by honey, lime juice, then fruits, and finally ice.
  • Start blending on low speed for 10-15 seconds, then increase to high for another 30-45 seconds until smooth. If your blender struggles, pause and redistribute ingredients before continuing.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness. Too thick? Add a splash of pineapple juice. Not sweet enough? Add more honey. Too sweet? Add more lime juice.
  • Pour into chilled hurricane glasses or mason jars. For presentation, drizzle a teaspoon of coconut cream on top and garnish with fresh pineapple wedges, strawberry halves, or paper umbrellas.

Notes

Pro tip: Freeze fresh strawberries and pineapple chunks for 30 minutes before blending for an extra-cold drink without diluting flavors.
Greek yogurt can replace some coconut cream for a tangier, protein-rich option.
Mango chunks work wonderfully in place of strawberries.
Fresh is best, but you can refrigerate leftover mixture for up to 24 hours in an airtight container.
