Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing your frozen strawberries in a blender and slightly thawing them for about 5–10 minutes. Blend on high until smooth.
  2. In a large pitcher, combine 2 cups of DOLE canned pineapple juice, 1 cup of cream of coconut, and ½ cup of half and half. Whisk thoroughly for about 1 minute.
  3. Pour the pineapple mixture into your blender and add enough ice to reach the same height as the liquid. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds.
  4. Grab your favorite glasses and scoop a layer of strawberry puree at the bottom. Pour the slushy pineapple mixture over it carefully.
  5. Consider adding fresh fruit garnishes like sliced strawberries or pineapple on the edge of the glass and a paper umbrella for a festive look. Serve immediately.
