    Coconut milk
  • Then drop in a small pack of vanilla ice-cream followed by some muddled ice.
    I've seen chefs plonk ice cubes into a stout glass, then using a muddler (preferably a wooden one) break the ice in downwards motion till somewhat crushed or "muddled".
  • Blend the above ingredients, preferably in a bar blender, till nice and frothy. Let's call this a "pineapple and ice-cream mix"
