- Yield: 2 servings 1x
Description
An easy Disney copycat recipe from The Unofficial Disney Parks Drinks Recipe Book by Disney expert and this week’s guest, Ashley Craft, you can whip this up, hit play on Moana or Lilo and Stitch, and imagine you are relaxing on the beach — or sitting next to the Disney’s BoardWalk Inn roller coaster water slide.

Ingredients
1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
8 ounces nonalcoholic pina colada mix
2 ounces pineapple juice
3 cups crushed ice
2 pineapple wedges
Instructions
1. Mash raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once the mixture just begins to boil, remove from heat. Strain into a small sealable container, discarding solids, and chill for 1 hour.
2. In a blender, combine pina colada mix, pineapple juice, and ice. Blend until slushy. Split two 16-ounce drinking glasses or plastic cups. Divide raspberry puree evenly between glasses, pouring on top of the pina colada slush. Gently bled with a spoon, while keeping visible swirls, and serve garnished with pineapple wedges.
