- Rum – For both a piña colada and a strawberry daiquiri, a light or white rum is usually the best option. Light, white or silver rum is milder which allows the fruit flavors to shine, without overpowering them.
- Frozen strawberries – You can use fresh strawberries for this recipe, though you may need to add a bit more ice to the final cocktail. Process the recipe as normal (with 1 cup of ice) and add ice only if needed.
- Cream of coconut – This is a sweetened coconut cream traditionally used in piña coladas. It adds creaminess and sweetness, so you don’t need to add simple syrup.
- Pineapple juice
- Lime juice
