Frozen Pina Colada

Glass Guide- Collins Glass

The Pina Colada is a favorite frozen drink with pineapple and coconut that saw an increase in popularity after the release of Rupert Holmes' 1979 hit and now karaoke favorite, "Escape (The Pina Colada Song)." I like it with dark rum, but light rums are good too. You may also try the shaken Pina Colada, brandy based Kappa Colada or mocktail Coco Colada.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz dark rum
  • 1/2 cup pineapple cubes or 2 oz pineapple juice
  • 1 1/2 oz coconut cream
  • maraschino cherry for garnish
  • pineapple wedge for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Blend all ingredients with approximately 2 cups of ice.
  2. Strain into a hurricane glass.
  3. Garnish with the cherry and pineapple wedge.
