Making non-alcoholic Pina Coladas is so easy! Measure all the ingredients, add them to a high-speed blender or Thermomix and puree until smooth – about 30 seconds on high speed.

A Pina Colada is a cocktail that is traditionally made with rum, cream of coconut, and freshly strained pineapple juice. It has been invented in Puerto Rico and is the country’s national drink. It can be made shaken with ice or blended.

No, I don’t recommend using anything other than Cream of Coconut. Coconut milk and coconut cream won’t give you the same results, you need to use cream of coconut. It is sweeter and thicker than coconut milk and makes the drink rich and creamy. I promise it will make a big difference!

Cream of coconut comes in a can and is coconut milk that has been thickened and sweetened. It has a syrupy consistency and is used in many cocktails. You can find it in the drinks aisle by the alcoholic beverages or you can make your own.

How to Make Virgin Pina Coladas

FAQ

What is the best substitute for rum in piña colada?

No rum? No problem! Vodka is a common substitute for rum in Pina Coladas. However, since vodka definitely has a distinct taste and lacks the sweetness of rum, it’s recommended that you add a splash of simple syrup or extra pineapple juice to the classic homemade Pina Colada Mix Recipe.

What is a non alcoholic pina colada called?

Virgin piña colada or piñita colada – without the rum, thus non-alcoholic.

Is piña colada good for you without alcohol?

It’s not only healthy, it’s also low calorie and Weight Watchers friendly at 6 WW points on the blue plan for 12 oz, where a regular Pina Colada would be 30 points for the same size drink. It’s a satisfying and refreshing mocktail for kids and those that prefer it non alcoholic.

What is the difference between piña colada and virgin pina colada?

A cousin of the original pina colada which is made with rum, this drink replaces rum with more of pineapple juice and coconut milk powder and a tinge of lemon juice. Using readymade pineapple juice instead of a fresh one makes the taste of virgin pina colada more predictable, removing the risk of tartness.
