Since transitioning to a low carb diet, I have struggled to find the perfect sweet drink that would satisfying my cravings. I used to love piña coladas, but they are high in sugar and carbs and were definitely not going to fit into my lifestyle change. Then, I discovered these awesome drink packets at HEB and decided to give them a try. I got into the kitchen, got my thinking cap on and created the most delicious drink I have ever made at home. Honestly, I like them just as much, if not better, than the high sugar version. Plus, they are so simple to make. All you need are four simple ingredients:

3 Shots of Rum

1 Cup Mooala Keto Mylk (I think a no sugar added coconut milk would work just as well)

3 Cups Ice

2 Packets Zero Sugar Margaritaville Piña Colada Mix

Optional: Whipped Cream and Strawberries

Combine all of the ingredients in your blender and mix until the desired consistency is reached. Place in a chilled glass, top with whipped cream (check out my low carb recipe here) and a strawberry. Viola, you’re done!

You have definitely got to give this a try and let me know what you think in the comments! I promise, your taste buds are definitely going to thank you for this!

Funny Bonus: I have taken these packets to some local bars here in the Austin area, ordered a tall rum and soda, and mixed a half packet in. As weird as it sounds, it was actually not bad at all! I do have some other tips and tricks for ordering low carb drinks when you’re out, so feel free to reach out and I’d be happy to help.
