Ingredient Notes

Add Non Alcoholic Rum – You can also add an ounce of non-alcoholic rum.
Use frozen fruit: Frozen strawberries and pineapple thicken the drink and keep it chilled without watering it down.

Serving and Garnish Tips for a Glow-Worthy Celebration

Chill Your Glasses: Pop tall hurricane or stemless wine glasses in the freezer for 15 minutes so the creamy coconut swirl stays frosty.
Layer Like Lava: Slowly pour the strawberry puree into the glass before adding the piña colada mixture to create dramatic red “lava flow” ribbons.
Tropical Garnish Glow: Top each drink with a fresh pineapple wedge, a halved strawberry, or a sprinkle of shredded coconut for instant island vibes.
Umbrella & Straw Fun: Slide in a colorful paper umbrella and reusable straw to make it kid-friendly and photo-ready.
Party Pitcher Magic: Double or triple the recipe, layer in a clear pitcher, and gently swirl with a long spoon before serving for a show-stopping centerpiece.
Mini Mocktails: Serve in small mason jars or fun plastic cups with handles for easy gripping.
DIY Sprinkle Rim: Lightly dip glass rims in honey, then into rainbow sprinkles for a festive, dessert-like edge.
Build-Your-Own Bar: Set out bowls of fruit toppings—strawberry slices, pineapple bits, or shredded coconut—so kids can customize their own tropical masterpiece.

Step by Step Lava Flow Layers

First, make the strawberry puree by blending the fresh strawberries and water in a high-speed blender until smooth. Set aside.
Rinse the blender and add coconut milk, juice, frozen pineapple, and ice. Blend until smooth and creamy. If you prefer the drink looser, add a splash of pineapple juice or start with a half cup of ice.
Pour an inch of strawberry puree into a tall glass. Add the pina colada mixture slowly.
Garnish with pineapple slices, a fun straw, and a strawberry. Tropical umbrellas and straws are also entertaining!

Rinse the blender and add coconut milk, juice, frozen pineapple, and ice. Blend until smooth and creamy. If you prefer the drink looser, add a splash of pineapple juice or start with a half cup of ice.
Pour an inch of strawberry puree into a tall glass. Add the pina colada mixture slowly.

Notes

Blend in layers: Blend the strawberry mixture separately for that signature lava flow look, then pour it over the creamy piña colada base. The red “lava” will swirl beautifully.
Use frozen fruit: Frozen strawberries and pineapple thicken the drink and keep it chilled without watering it down.
Make it kid-friendly fun: Serve in tall glasses with a straw and umbrella for a playful, vacation-at-home vibe.
Party pitcher version: Double or triple the recipe and serve in a big pitcher—perfect for BBQs, showers, or poolside gatherings.

Garnish glow: For a tropical finish, add fresh strawberry slices, pineapple wedges, or shredded coconut.
