Description

The Lava Flow is a tropical, eye-catching frozen cocktail that tastes as amazing as it looks. With layers of strawberry, banana, pineapple, and coconut, it’s creamy, fruity, and perfect for summer vibes or vacation-in-a-glass moments.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ounces frozen strawberries
  • 1 ounce light rum
  • 1 ounce coconut rum
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 2 ounces cream of coconut
  • 2 ounces pineapple juice
  • 1 cup ice

Instructions

  1. Make the Strawberry Layer: In a blender, combine the frozen strawberries and light rum. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a tall glass and set aside.
  2. Make the Coconut-Banana Layer: Rinse the blender. Add coconut rum, banana, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, and ice. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Assemble the Lava Flow: Slowly pour the banana-coconut mixture over the strawberry base. The strawberry will rise and swirl like lava through the glass.
  4. Serve: Garnish with a pineapple wedge or strawberry if desired. Serve immediately with a straw.

Notes

  • Use fresh or overripe bananas for the best creamy texture and sweetness.
  • Make it non-alcoholic by skipping the rums and adding more pineapple juice or coconut water.
  • For a layered effect, pour the banana mixture slowly down the side of the glass.
