Nothing says summer like a Piña Colada—and this infused mocktail version brings all that tropical, coconut-pineapple flavor without the rum, plus a gentle, dosed lift from your favorite cannabis tincture. It’s creamy, cold, and perfect for a slow weekend afternoon on the porch.
Ingredients (makes 4 servings)
- 2 cups pineapple juice, chilled
- 1 cup coconut cream (canned, well shaken)
- 1 cup crushed pineapple (canned or fresh, with juice)
- 2 cups ice
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup (optional, to taste)
- Infused element: 4 servings of cannabis tincture (dosed per your product’s label — e.g., 5–10mg THC per serving), added individually per glass rather than blended into the batch
- Garnish: pineapple wedges and maraschino cherries
Instructions
- Add the pineapple juice, coconut cream, crushed pineapple, lime juice, simple syrup (if using), and ice to a blender.
- Blend on high until smooth and frosty, about 30–45 seconds.
- Pour into 4 glasses, dividing evenly.
- Add each person’s measured dose of tincture directly to their individual glass and stir gently. Dosing per glass—rather than blending tincture into the whole pitcher—keeps every serving consistent and easy to track.
- Garnish with a pineapple wedge and cherry, and serve immediately.
Dosing & Safety Note
Start low and go slow. Add your tincture to each glass individually so you know exactly how much everyone is consuming—this recipe is written for roughly 5–10mg THC per serving, but always follow your specific product’s label since potency varies widely. Effects from infused drinks typically take 30–90 minutes to fully kick in, so wait before having more. Keep this drink clearly labeled and stored well away from kids and pets, don’t drive or operate machinery after consuming, and always follow your local and state cannabis laws. This recipe is for informational purposes only and isn’t medical advice.
Servings & Approximate Dosing
This recipe makes about 4 servings (roughly 8oz each). Because the tincture is added per glass rather than infused into the whole batch, THC content per serving is simply whatever dose you choose to add—most people start around 5–10mg THC per serving and adjust from there based on personal tolerance.
Key Takeaways
- Dose the tincture per individual glass, not the whole batch, for consistent and controllable servings.
- Effects take 30–90 minutes to appear—wait before having a second glass.
- Store labeled and away from kids and pets; never drive after consuming.
FAQs
Can I make this a big batch for a party?
You can blend a large batch of the base (pineapple juice, coconut cream, crushed pineapple, ice), but add tincture to each individual glass at serving time rather than mixing it into the whole pitcher. This keeps dosing accurate and lets guests opt in or out.
What kind of tincture works best?
A neutral-flavored THC tincture blends in most smoothly, but any tincture works since it’s added to individual glasses rather than blended in bulk.
How long do the effects last?
Edible and infused-drink effects generally last longer than smoking—often 4–6 hours—with onset around 30–90 minutes. Always start low and wait before consuming more.
Can I make a non-dairy version?
Yes—coconut cream is already dairy-free, so this recipe is naturally vegan-friendly as written.
