No blend non alcoholic Pina Colada
/If you hate pulling the blender out for cocktails, but love a good non alcoholic pineapple drink, this should be on your summer mocktail rotation
If you’re a fan of the traditional Pina Colada and its pineapple, coconut and lime flavours, but you’re not drinking and you’re not a fan of pulling out your blender then this non alcoholic cocktail is for you. Pulling out a blender just for one drink is such a hassle, especially if you’re a busy mom and don’t need one more thing to clean. Using a cocktail shaker is a lot easier for cleanup without missing out on the taste or texture you’re looking for in an elevated non-alcoholic drink with pineapple juice.
Using Non Alcoholic Rum in Cocktails & Mocktails
This non alcoholic Pina Colada uses Lyre’s Spirits Co White Cane Style non alcoholic rum. If you’ve never tried non alcoholic rum before, this is a well-crafted replica of the real thing. It has all the sugar cane flavours of traditional white rum but without the alcohol.
One thing to note when building a drink with lighter non alcoholic spirits like this one is you have be heavy handed on the pour and be careful not to overpower it with other flavours. Non alcoholic pineapple drinks can be too sweet without proper portioning. Doubling up the usual measure of spirit will help the zero proof rum product shine through. Coconut and pineapple are both strong flavours, so this non alcoholic replica recipe uses a different balance to the ingredients than a boozy cocktail.
No blender required for this alcohol free Pina Colada
Not using a blender also means a little added TLC to get the right texture. It’s all in the shake! Shake hard, and shake longer than usual - the coconut cream needs to break up and foam so go ahead and have some fun with your shaking.
Now, put on some tropical music and let’s get started!
