Tips
- Use coconut cream (not light coconut milk), as this gives the drink its thick, creamy texture.
- Fresh pineapple juice gives an even more vivid flavour than bottled.
- For an alcohol-free version, leave out the rum and make up the volume with a little extra pineapple juice.
- This is an alcoholic drink - don't have it before driving or during pregnancy.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between coconut cream and coconut milk?
Coconut cream is thicker, richer and sweeter, made specifically for cocktails; plain coconut milk is thinner and used more for cooking.
Can it be made without pineapple?
Not really - pineapple juice gives the drink its sweet-sharp base; it can be varied with mango or other tropical fruit, but then it becomes a different cocktail.
