Instantly transport yourself to paradise with this keto piña colada!
Do you like piña coladas?
What better way to celebrate summer than with this iconic beach drink! And now you can enjoy a keto version with these sugar-free flavored syrups we found on Amazon.
Admittedly, they’re in the dirty keto category, but when the craving for a tropical adult beverage hits, you got to do, what you got to do! 😆
I’m loving these cool drinks and they are going to make an appearance at all my summer BBQs.
Are piña coladas keto?
Piña coladas are not typically keto. That’s why it’s so wonderful to have this recipe! I did create a non-keto piña colada recipe for Hip2Save last summer and used pretty much the same method for this keto version.
To make this keto, I reduced the amount of pineapple and swapped out the cream of coconut for sugar-free pineapple syrup and sugar-free coconut syrup. And I can honestly say I prefer the keto version!
It’s nice to not have a big sugar crash after drinking it. I’m not a big fan of super sweet drinks anyway.
Tips for making the best keto piña colada:
- Use sugar-free syrups to help get that hint of sweetness. I used a sugar-free pineapple and sugar-free coconut syrup.
- These piña coladas will be a little thinner than normal as there is less pineapple blended into the mixture. I used 4 cups of ice but if you want it thicker, you could use 5 cups of ice.
- Want to skip the rum? You can substitute sparkling water in place of the rum.
- Don’t skip the refreezing step! This helps create that perfect slushie consistency!
- I highly recommend using a high powdered blender to make sure the ice gets well-blended.

“THIS PINA COLADA…😍 It is so GOOD! Do not skip out on the coconut milk because I think that totally makes the whole drink – so creamy and yum! This is the perfect drink for summer… I can’t believe we made it keto! 🙌🏻“
