Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (225g) frozen mango chunks
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) coconut cream
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) pineapple juice
  • 2 oz (60ml) white rum (optional for mocktail version)
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) honey or agave syrup (optional)
  • Tajín seasoning (enough to rim glasses)
  • 1 cup (240ml) ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Pour some Tajín seasoning onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip into the Tajín to coat evenly. Set aside.
  2. In your blender, combine frozen mango chunks, coconut cream, pineapple juice, white rum, fresh lime juice, and honey or agave syrup if using.
  3. Add ice cubes to the blender. Blend on high for about 30-45 seconds until smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
  4. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more pineapple juice and pulse to combine. If too thin, add a few more frozen mango chunks or ice cubes.
  5. Taste and adjust by adding more lime juice for brightness or extra honey for sweetness.
  6. Pour the creamy frozen mango pina colada into the Tajín-rimmed glasses immediately. Garnish with a lime wedge or a small mango slice if desired.

Notes

Let frozen mango chunks sit out for 5 minutes before blending to avoid icy crunch and achieve a smoother texture. Chill glasses beforehand to keep the cocktail cold longer. For a mocktail, omit rum and add extra pineapple juice or sparkling water. Adjust ice quantity to control thickness. Rimming the glass with lime juice before Tajín helps the seasoning stick evenly.
