    Frozen Pina Colada with Sugar-Free Simple Syrup

    By Laura CyraJuly 9, 20241 Comment4 Mins Read

    When hot summer days are upon us that means slushie drinks are a perfect way to cool down. Traditional pina colada recipes call for cream of coconut, which is a sweetened version of coconut cream. This Sugar-Free Simple Syrup Pina Colada recipe uses the rich coconut cream found on the top of a can of unsweetened coconut milk. The secret to sweetness in this recipe is a simple syrup made with powdered monkfruit to balance out the flavor.

    You can use fresh, frozen, or canned pineapple for this pina colada recipe. For a quick and easy version purchase frozen pineapple at the grocery store, it is sliced and frozen and ready to use.

    Frozen Pina Colada Recipe

    Sugar-Free Simple Syrup Pina Colada

    Frozen Pina Colada Ingredients

    • 2 c. frozen pineapple chunks
    • 8 oz. pineapple juice
    • 1/3 c. coconut cream
    • 4 oz. light rum
    • 6-8 ice cubes
    • Fresh pineapple slices, garnish

    Sugar-Free Simple Syrup

    • ¼ c. powdered monkfruit sweetener
    • ½ c. water

    Note: Simple syrup is traditionally prepared using a 1:1 ratio of refined white sugar to water. In general, monkfruit sweetener is considered a 1:1 replacement for sugar, but in this case, a 1:2 ratio (one part sweetener to two parts water) works well because the pineapple is inherently sweet.

    You’ll find these items useful in this recipe (I've included affiliate links to the products I use at home):

    • Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener – I find Amazon is a great source for this as they have a variety of options and the price point is great
    • Hurricane Glasses – because you can't have a pina colada without a fancy glass!

    Frozen Pina Colada Directions

    1. Prepare the simple syrup by combining the powdered monkfruit sweetener and water in a small skillet. Stir to combine and heat until the sweetener dissolves completely, approximately 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
    2. Place the frozen pineapple, pineapple juice, coconut cream, rum, and one-quarter cup simple syrup into a blender and blend until smooth.
    3. While the blender is still running, add the ice a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
    4. Turn the blender off and remove the lid. Taste and add additional simple syrup, if desired, and blend for another 30 seconds to combine.
    5. To serve, pour into glasses and serve immediately garnished with fresh pineapple slices. Enjoy!

    Mocktail Version – Omit the rum and replace it with 1 oz. coconut cream and 3 oz. pineapple juice before blending.
