If you want a hack job, then use a hose clamp.

I know that a hose clamp will NEVER be as strong as the crimp ring used on
PEX.

The clamp would strip/break first

Also, you are not supposed to reuse a PEX joint, so if you cut the ring off,
you will need to clip the end off the hose as well.

This is detailed in the material for my PEX system...now ten years
old.
