Step up your pina colada game with this Lava Colada Boozy Shake recipe. A twist on the famous Lava Flow from Hawaii, transformed into a milkshake!
Ingredients
- 12 oz coconut rum
- 4 oz pineapple rum
- 1 cup strawberry puree (+ 2 tablespoons sugar if using fresh strawberries)
- 15 oz cream of coconut (we used Coco Lopez)
- 1 quart vanilla ice cream (about 12 scoops)
- fresh pineapple wedges
- fresh strawberries
- wooden skewers
- whipped cream
Garnish
- corn syrup to rim the glasses
- 1 /2 cup toasted coconut
- 1 teaspoon butter (for toasting coconut)
To rim glasses
Instructions
- You can used frozen or fresh strawberries, I had fresh, so I cleaned and diced them first and added 2 tablespoons of sugar then tossed them in a blender to puree the strawberries and set aside in the fridge.
- Next I added a teaspoon of butter to a nonstick skillet and toasted the coconut flakes, only takes a minute, just let the butter get hot and stir around coconut till it just starts to brown in the edges. Place in a little saucer that will be used to rim the glasses.
- Another saucer will be used for the corn syrup first turn glass upside and coat well with the corn syrup hold there a few seconds to let drip or it will be running down the glass. Then go straight to the toasted coconut same thing hold glass upside down and turn it all around to rim the glass then set those aside.
- Pour coconut rum, pineapple juice, cream of coconut and scoop ice cream in the blender to mix for a few seconds. Take the strawberry puree from the fridge and pour into the bottom of each glass and carefully pour mixture from the blender down the center of each glass. The blender was a full 64 oz so we had enough to fill 6 hurricane glasses. So depending on how many people your serving you may want more strawberry puree to keep on hand. That has to be kept separate to get the full effect of the Lava Flow.
- I just used a can of Redi Whip and tossed a few coconut flakes on the top then added the pineapple and strawberry on wooden skewers for garnish along with the little paper umbrellas.

Notes
For the pineapple rum, we just placed a small (2 oz.) bottle in each glass. If you don't have those bottles, or wish to use them, just add the pineapple rum into the blender when you add the coconut rum.
