Description
Spicy-sweet Miami Vice Mocktail blends tropical strawberry and coconut flavors for a refreshing non-alcoholic cocktail. Smooth Caribbean-inspired ingredients create a delightful drink you’ll want to savor again and again.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups frozen strawberries
- 1 ½ cups (360 ml) water
- ½ cup (120 ml) pineapple juice
- ½ cup (120 ml) milk (almond milk, coconut milk)
- 1 frozen banana
- ¼ cup (50 g) sugar
- 2 tbsps cream of coconut
- Juice from ½ lime
- 10 ice cubes
Instructions
- Tropical Base Blend: Combine milk, pineapple juice, frozen banana, cream of coconut, and ice cubes in the blender. Pulse until achieving a velvety, smooth tropical mixture with consistent texture.
- Strawberry Layer Creation: Cleanse the blender thoroughly, then merge water, sugar, frozen strawberries, lime juice, and ice cubes. Pulse until transforming into a vibrant, ruby-red puree with seamless consistency.
- Mocktail Assembly: Strategically layer the white piña colada mixture against the crimson strawberry daiquiri base in selected serving glasses, creating a visually striking two-tone effect.
- Presentation Flourish: Enhance the mocktail’s aesthetic by threading a fruit skewer with alternating pineapple and strawberry chunks, or delicately position a fresh pineapple slice along the glass rim. Serve chilled to preserve the drink’s tropical essence and maximize its refreshing qualities.
Notes
- Blending Technique: Use pulse function to achieve smooth, creamy texture without over-processing ingredients.
- Cleaning Caution: Thoroughly wash blender between layers to prevent flavor mixing and maintain distinct color separation.
- Layering Pro-Tip: Pour strawberry mixture slowly against glass side for crisp, defined color gradient.
- Serving Suggestion: Chill glasses beforehand to keep mocktail cold and enhance visual presentation.
