Pina Colada

You can tell I’m ready for summer; summer cocktails, frozen cocktails and pina colada to be specific. No, I’m not an alcoholic but there’s something about holidays or summertime, sitting out on the balcony sipping on a frozen cocktail that appeals to me.

The piña colada is a sweet cocktail made with rum, coconut cream or coconut milk, and pineapple juice, usually served either blended or shaken with ice. It may be garnished with either a pineapple wedge, maraschino cherry, or both. It’s delicious with the rum or equally tasty if you go for the virgin version, sans alcohol.

This classic recipe will transport you to paradise. Getting caught in the rain is not required.
