Blender Pina Colada will have a slushie/smoothie consistency. You can also use a good immersion (hand) blender to mix the ingredients.
- SHAKEN Pina Colada - add all the ingredients into a shaker or a big jar. Shake it thoroughly, for a minimum of 30 seconds. It's best to use crushed ice here. You can also serve it on the rocks (simply pour the drink over ice). This drink will be a little thinner.

ISLAND PINA COLADA
Ever wonder why the Piña Coladas you make at home taste nothing like the ones served at your favorite tropical destination? Most recipes simplify the colada into a mixture of rum, pineapples & ice with a splash of coconut milk. A flavorful Piña Colada has two kinds of rum (light and dark), cream and even bitters added which make the concoction a true tropical delight. Use high quality Puerto Rican rum in this recipe for the best result. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Mix ingredients in blender until smooth; pour into glasses; garnish with pineapple wedges and maraschino cherries if desired.
- Note: This recipe is my adaptation of "The Authentic Piña Colada" printed on back of the Coco Lopez Real Cream of Coconut® can, which is the same as this but uses all (3 ounces) regular rum only ~ It's a great drink but I just love the inclusion of part coconut rum to make it even better!

PINA COLADA I
The real Pina Colada was invented in the Hotel Caribe Hilton in Puerto Rico during the decade of the 1950's. The inventor was a bartender who entered a world competition, and won for this drink. He did not patent the recipe for which reason I am able to make some modifications for your delight.

Tips:
- Fresh pineapple juice is essential. Store-bought pineapple juice often contains added sugar and preservatives, which can ruin the taste of your pina colada.
- Use good-quality cream of coconut. Cream of coconut is the second most important ingredient in a pina colada, so don't skimp on it. Look for a brand that is thick and creamy, and avoid products that contain added sugar or thickeners.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different rums. The type of rum you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your pina colada. Light rums will produce a more delicate flavor, while dark rums will add a richer, more complex flavor.
- Garnish your pina colada with a pineapple wedge and a maraschino cherry. This will add a tropical flair to your drink and make it look more festive.
Conclusion:
The pina colada is a classic tropical cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy, sweet, and refreshing flavor, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cocktail, give the pina colada a try. You won't be disappointed!
