Delicious Strawberry Lava Flow Pina Colada Mocktail
Lava Flow Mocktail is when a Pina Colada meets a delicious strawberry puree that erupts into an icy, FAMILY-FRIENDLY DRINK! This vacation-inspired mocktail will be a fun and colorful addition to your summer festivities!
Our recent trip to Maui inspired this Delicious Strawberry Lava Flow Colada Mocktail Recipe. Steve and I were married on the beach there and love to return yearly. Pina Coladas, Chi Chis, and Lava Flows are very popular on the islands. It’s the ultimate tropical vacation. We always stay on Kaanapali Beach, our fav! (*This post was written before the Maui Fires. Our heart goes out to the residents of Maui.)
We were excited to make a Mocktail version of this frozen drink to enjoy with family and friends. This drink is ALWAYS a hit! Kids thrill from the strawberry puree rising through the glass when you pour in the Pina Colada. Many people, including Steve and I, enjoy a non-alcoholic beverage, and Mocktails are having a ‘moment’. Many bars and restaurants now offer Mocktails on the menu. You will LOVE this recipe for whatever reason you want to try this delectable drink.
