BANANA PINA COLADA DRINK



Banana Pina Colada Drink image

I've tried just a couple pina colada recipes this year on this website. And have been looking for the absolute best recipe so I decided to make my own once I bought a premade pina colada mixer. Anyway the kefir is an odd ingredient I know but it really balances this drink and makes it especially smooth. But if you don't have any, feel free to use a scoop or two of ice cream instead.

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 38m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2-3/4 teaspoon coconut extract (optional) or 1/2-3/4 teaspoon rum extract (optional)
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium to large bananas)
1/4 cup honey
2 large eggs
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups white whole wheat flour
3/4-1 cup diced dried pineapple
1/3 cup flaked coconut, for topping (sweetened or unsweetened)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin cups, and grease the cups.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, vanilla, and coconut or rum flavor. Add the bananas, honey, eggs, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt, beating until smooth. Stir in the flour, then the dried fruit. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups. Sprinkle each muffin with coconut.
  • Bake the muffins for 25 to 28 minutes, until a cake tester inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven, and as soon as possible tilt each muffin in its cup, to allow air to circulate and prevent the bottoms from steaming. Serve warm, or at room temperature.
  • Note: If you find yourself a bit short of 1 1/2 cups mashed banana? Rather than cut a chunk off another banana, top off the measuring cup with applesauce, if desired.
  • Note: Don't use canned pineapple; it's too juicy and will make the muffins soggy. If you like, substitute another dried fruit: chopped dates, raisins, or chopped apricots are all good choices.

AUSSIE BANANA COLADA COCKTAIL



Aussie Banana Colada Cocktail image

This is the Aussie version of a banana colada, a little different to the other colada recipes on here. Oh so tasty!

Provided by Mandy

Categories     Beverages

Time 2m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

30 ml white rum
30 ml coconut cream (for an extra kick) or 30 ml Malibu rum (for an extra kick)
30 ml banana liqueur
90 ml pineapple juice
30 ml cream
1/2 banana
1 scoop ice

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients in a blender & blend until smooth.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana colada will be.
  • Choose a high-quality coconut cream: Not all coconut creams are created equal. Look for a brand that uses real coconut meat and has a rich, creamy flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the pineapple juice: Pineapple juice is an essential ingredient in a banana colada. It adds a bright, tropical flavor that balances out the sweetness of the bananas and coconut cream.
  • Use a blender: A blender is the best way to achieve a smooth and creamy banana colada. If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor, but the results won't be as good.
  • Garnish your banana colada with a pineapple wedge and a maraschino cherry: This will make your drink look and taste even more delicious.

Conclusion:

The banana colada is a classic tropical cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and refreshing. So next time you're looking for a fun and festive drink, give the banana colada a try. You won't be disappointed!
