Rabat – Summer temperatures are climbing, making it the perfect season for refreshing drinks that cool you down while adding a little escape to the day. Well, a Virgin Piña Colada does exactly that.
Thanks to its tropical flavors, every sip feels like a brief getaway to a sun-soaked island lined with palm trees and ocean breezes.
With pineapple and coconut, Virgin Piña Colada has become a summer favorite for those looking to bring a tropical touch to their day.
Creamy, refreshing, and easy to make, it captures the feeling of a beach getaway in a single glass.
So, here’s how to make it.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsweetened frozen pineapple chunks (keeps the drink thick and frosty)

- Sugar to taste
How to make it
- Add the frozen pineapple chunks to a blender, followed by the crushed ice, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, and sugar.
