This Dalgona Inspired Pina Colada Milk is the perfect treat for summer. Inspired by the Dalgona coffee craze, this version takes your taste buds on a tropical trip. It is the ultimate indulgence on a hot day!
While vacations may be on hold until the pandemic is over, that doesn’t mean you can’t experience a totally tropical vibe at home. These Dalgona Inspired Pina Colada Milks are my new summer obsession. I have a feeling you will love them as much as I do!
The drinks look super fancy and rival any mixed drink you might have at your favorite bar or coffee shop, but they are perfect for sharing with the whole family, as no alcohol is used in the recipe. Serve Dalgona Inspired Pina Colada Milk in place of dessert on a scorching day, or make a batch before guests arrive. They will be properly wowed! It is always a good time for a pina colada milk!
You can use fresh or canned pineapple, whatever you have on hand will work fine. Use whatever milk you prefer from whole to skim. There is no need to go buy something special for this recipe, unless you hope to make preparation easier. This recipe does take a few moments of time, I highly recommend using an electric mixer or frother to save a few minutes. If you are using a whisk, be prepared to whip the cream for at least 7 minutes, but don’t be surprised if it takes a few extra minutes to manually get hard peaks. It is a part of the process! It is well worth the effort in my opinion for such a tropical indulgence!
