    My Strawberry Colada has everything you love about Pina Coladas, plus strawberries! Fast and easy using frozen fruit and malibu rum, this will be your new summer cocktail favourite.

    Do you like Pina Coladas?...gettin' caught in the rain...sorry, just had to be done! This Strawberry Colada recipe is my take on the traditional pina colada. It's super fast and easy, all we are going to do is whizz up some frozen strawberries and pineapple in the food processor, add your booze (rum) and coconut milk and you're done!pink colored strawberry colada drinks in clear glasses decorated with strawberries and yellow straws on a marble board

    No chopping required, just drinking. My kind of fruity cocktail!

    This is a great summer cocktail, and while it's not summer here in Australia I'm going with the theory that it's summer somewhere though!
