Method

Pour the Curaçao, coconut cream and rum into a food processor or blender. Process very briefly until the colour is evenly blended.

Place the ice cubes in a dishtowel and crush to a fine snow with a wooden hammer or rolling pin.

Add the pineapple juice to the food processor or blender and process the mixture once more until frothy.

Spoon the crushed ice into a large cocktail glass or goblet. Pour the cocktail mixture over the crushed ice and decorate the glass with the fruit and pineapple leaves. Serve immediately.

Variation:- Coconut and rum make a great base for any creamy cocktail. Try replacing the pineapple juice and Curaçao with 50g/2oz peach or strawberries and 25ml/1½ tbsp peach schnapps.
