A festive and refreshing layered slushie combining creamy pina colada base with red and blue berry slush layers, perfect for July 4th celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup (240 ml) pineapple juice, chilled
  • 1 cup (150 g) fresh or frozen pineapple chunks, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon white rum (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1 cup (150 g) frozen strawberries or raspberries
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) water or pineapple juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sugar or sweetener (optional)
  • 1 cup (150 g) frozen blueberries
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) water or pineapple juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sugar or sweetener (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Red Berry Layer: Blend frozen strawberries or raspberries, water or pineapple juice, lemon juice, and sugar until smooth but thick. Pour into a shallow freezer-safe container and freeze for 1 to 1.5 hours until partially frozen but scoopable. Stir halfway through freezing.
  2. Prepare the Blue Berry Layer: Repeat the same process with frozen blueberries, water or pineapple juice, lemon juice, and sugar. Freeze similarly in a separate container.
  3. Make the White Pina Colada Base: Rinse blender, then blend coconut milk, pineapple juice, pineapple chunks, rum (if using), honey, and ice cubes on high for about 45 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  4. Assemble the Slushie: Spoon a layer of red berry slush into the bottom of a glass (about 1/3), add a layer of pina colada mixture (1/3), then finish with the blue berry slush on top.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Add a pineapple wedge, mint sprig, or festive straw. Serve immediately. If layers start to blend, chill in freezer for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Freeze berry layers in thin, flat containers for best texture. Use room temperature pineapple juice to avoid blender motor issues. Layer gently to keep colors distinct. Serve immediately for best texture or chill briefly if layers blend.
