It’s almost New Year’s Eve and we can ring in the new year with a bang with this Piña Colada Sauce and Coconut Shrimp. Its the perfect quick and easy appetizer, and such a great way to celebrate the New Year?
For this quick appetizer you’ll need SeaPak Jumbo Coconut Shrimp (which I LOVE!). You can grab a box from Walmart. To make the sauce you’ll also need cream of coconut, pineapple juice (or crushed pineapple), water and cornstarch.
This is the perfect appetizer for tomorrow night because its so quick to throw together, and ready in less than 15 minutes – tops!
While the shrimp are baking in the oven you’ll cook your sauce on the stove top by combining your pineapple juice and crushed coconut until boiling, then add in a slurry of cornstarch and water to thicken the sauce. And that’s it. When the shrimp are done baking (after just 12 minutes in the oven) your delicious appetizer is ready to go!
The piña colada sauce is perfectly sweet, and so good paired with the crunchy coconut shrimp. I bet it would be great on chicken, or other meats too – but for ease I’m gonna stick with SeaPak’s coconut shrimp. It’s the perfect combo!
What appetizers will you be serving at your New Year’s Eve Party? Hopefully SeaPak Coconut Shrimp and this delicious piña colada dipping sauce!!

What is the shelf life for pina coloda sauce
Aimee says
It should be good kept in the fridge in an airtight container for about a week. I haven’t tried longer.
Teresa Boyd says
Where do I find cream of coconut? Yum!
Aimee says
It should be in any grocery store near the drink mixers. It’s not alcoholic, but it will be near margarita mixes.
Kathy says
I love it. Very.sweet. .I might try unsweetened crushed pineapple next time.
