The first step, the coconut base. A pina colada is usually a frozen blend. I wanted to enjoy the company of my friends without having to worry about making one drink at a time. And this is the reason why I am obsessed with all these clever drink bar ideas. I came up with a frozen coconut cream with only three ingredients. Cream of coconut, heavy whipping cream and condensed milk. Yes, that is it.
Combine together a can of cream of coconut and half a can of condensed milk. Put a mixing bowl in the freezer for about 20 to 30 minutes before you mix it.
Whisk the cream on high speed until stiff picks form.
Now, just fold the cream together with the cream of coconut and condensed milk until they are well combined.
Cover with plastic wrap and freeze overnight or for a minimum of 4 hours.
After following these simple steps, you will have a sweet and perfect frozen cream of coconut. yes, perfect for pins coladas!!
I put the frozen cream in mason jars filled up to about half of the container. I covered the jars and put them in the freezer for another two hours or so.
A pina colada just wouldn't be complete without a colorful and tasty garnish. I used this super cute flamingo stirrers to add even more color to our drinks.
I used a small pineapple triangle and a small strawberry.
Aren't they the cutest and funnest?? Yes they are!
And here they are, our delicious frozen cream- filled mason jars!
Please, let us not forget the star of the Bar, yes ladies and gentlemen, RUM! delicious, rum! along with probably one of his most popular partners, pineapple juice.
Our guest could put together a delicious pina colada in seconds just by pouring juice and rum on a delicious frozen cream. A mason jar is so versatile that it even works as a drink shaker and I absolutely love this!!!
We had an excellent day and my friend loved the pina colada Bar, especially set up to celebrate one more year of fabulous. Happy Birthday Vane!!!
