Let’s Try Some Variations!
- Adventurous Variation: For a piña colada twist, substitute half of the crushed pineapple with shredded coconut.
- Alternative Fruits: If you don’t like pineapple, canned mandarins work well. Adjust the liquid in the recipe accordingly.

Hi Vicki! 😊 This recipe actually doesn’t include milk as an ingredient, so there’s no need for a substitution. However, if you’d like to experiment, coconut milk could add a nice tropical twist! Let me know how it turns out if you try it.
