Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries (about 150g)
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar or honey (adjust to taste)
  • Juice of half a lime
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk (120ml)
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (or to taste)
  • 1/4 cup white rum (60ml) – optional
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (about 150g)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar or honey
  • Juice of half a lime
  • 3 cups crushed ice (about 450g)
  • Optional garnishes: fresh mint leaves, strawberry slices or whole blueberries, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Red Strawberry Layer: In your blender, combine 1 cup strawberries, 1 tablespoon sugar, juice of half a lime, and 1 cup crushed ice (about 150g). Blend until smooth and slushy, about 30 seconds. Pour into your glass or jar, filling about one-third of the way. Set aside and chill in the freezer for 2-3 minutes to firm up slightly.
  2. Mix the White Coconut Layer: Rinse your blender or use a clean one. Blend 1/2 cup coconut milk, 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, 1/4 cup white rum (optional), and 1 cup crushed ice until creamy and smooth, about 30 seconds. Slowly pour this layer over the back of a spoon onto the strawberry layer to avoid mixing. Chill again for 2-3 minutes to help it set.
  3. Create the Blueberry Layer: Clean the blender again. Blend 1 cup blueberries, 1 tablespoon sugar, juice of half a lime, and 1 cup crushed ice until smooth and icy, about 30 seconds. Slowly pour over the white layer using the spoon technique.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Add a sprig of mint, a strawberry slice, or a few blueberries on top. Serve immediately with a straw or a festive stirrer.

Notes

Pour each layer slowly over the back of a spoon and chill the glass in the freezer for 2-3 minutes between layers to keep layers distinct. Use frozen fruit when possible for best icy texture. Adjust sweetness to taste. The rum is optional and can be omitted or replaced with non-alcoholic alternatives for a kid-friendly version. Prepare and freeze each fruit puree separately up to 24 hours ahead if needed. Serve immediately for best presentation.
