If You Like Pina Coladas...

 

 While I am not typically a fan of sweet drinks, one of my favorite drinks is a Pina Colada. The icy coconut tastes perfect and it doesn't hurt that it reminds me of a tropical beach. I even like them without rum!
.
The first Pina Colada was supposedly served at The Caribe Hilton Hotel's Beachcomber Bar in San Juan, Puerto Rico. There are many variations. The version below is a classic. It can be served in a tall glass or a scooped out pineapple.

• 1 cup of Ice
• 1 1/2 ounces rum
• 2 ounces Coco Lopez cream of coconut
• 2 ounces pineapple juice
• fresh pineapple slices

 

Directions ~

Puree ice, rum, cream of coconut and pineapple juice in a blender. Serve garnished with a slice of fresh pineapple .

ENJOY.
