Lava Flow Drink

Lava Flow

3 1/2 cups pineapple juice
2 cans (15 ounces each) cream of coconut  Like Coco Lopez brand
1 cup half and half, fat free of regular
24 ounces frozen strawberries in syrup, slightly thawed until slushy in texture
Ice
Fresh pineapple to garnish, if desired.

Directions:
In a blender, puree the slightly thawed strawberries with 1/2 cup water.  The mixture should be syrupy and thick.  Transfer to a liquid measuring bowl and set aside.  In a pitcher, whisk together the pineapple juice, cream of coconut and half and half.  In a blender, fill up halfway with ice.  Pour in the coconut/pineapple mixture until it comes up to an even height with the ice.  Blend until slushy.  Pour about an inch of the strawberry syrup mixture into each cup.  Pour the icy coconut/pineapple mixture into the center of the strawberry mixture till filled.  If desired, gently swirl the mixture with a straw.  Garnish with fresh pineapple and serve immediately.
