The Cocoskiss is a sweet, creamy alcohol-free cocktail combining coconut milk with pineapple juice. The name says it all: the coconut note lingers gently on the tongue, while the pineapple provides fruity freshness. Perfect for anyone who enjoys tropical flavors without any alcohol. The drink is prepared in a shaker, and shaking it creates a lovely, slightly foamy texture.
And this is what you need for the Cocoskiss
8 cl pineapple juice
6 cl coconut milk
2 cl heavy cream
1 cl simple syrup
What matters
The coconut milk should be well shaken before opening to blend the fat and water. Many people take the can straight from the fridge and pour off only the watery layer—then the Cocoskiss lacks its creamy texture. If you don’t have heavy cream on hand, you can use just coconut milk and increase the amount accordingly. The simple syrup can be adjusted to taste: those who prefer it less sweet can reduce it to half a centiliter or leave it out entirely if the pineapple juice is already sweet enough.
Variations
- Cocoskiss Colada — Adding 4 cl white Rum turns it into an alcoholic variation reminiscent of a Piña Colada.
- Cocoskiss with Mango — Replace half of the pineapple juice with mango purée or mango juice for an even creamier, more exotic note.
- Cocoskiss on a stick — Pour the mixture into ice molds and freeze for creamy coconut-pineapple popsicles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I replace coconut milk with coconut water?
No, that would completely remove the creaminess. Coconut water is much thinner and less sweet. The Cocoskiss relies on full-fat coconut milk from the can.
Which pineapple juice works best?
Best is 100% pure juice without added sugar. It has enough natural flavor and isn’t overly sweet. From a can or bottle—just avoid nectar blends with lots of water added.
Can I also make the Cocoskiss in a blender?
Yes, especially if you use frozen pineapple chunks. Then it becomes a Frozen Cocoskiss. Simply blend all the ingredients with ice until creamy.
