Provided by Simon'sMom

Categories     Drinks Recipes     Cocktail Recipes     Rum Drinks Recipes

Time 10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (10 ounce) can frozen pina colada mix
1 cup crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
1 cup vanilla ice cream
1 (750 milliliter) bottle mango flavored rum
8 cubes ice
¼ cup whipping cream
4 cherries with stems

Steps:

  • Combine the pina colada mix, pineapple with juice, vanilla ice cream, rum, and ice in a blender. Blend until slushy.

Tips for Making the Perfect Piña Colada:

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh fruits, especially pineapple and limes. It makes a world of difference in the flavor.
  • Choose High-Quality Coconut Cream: Full-fat coconut cream will give your Piña Colada a rich, creamy texture. Avoid using coconut milk, which is thinner and less flavorful.
  • Don't Skimp on the Ice: Crushed ice is essential for a Piña Colada. It helps to dilute the drink and make it slushy and refreshing.
  • Blend Thoroughly: Blend the Piña Colada until it is smooth and slushy. If you don't have a blender, you can muddle the ingredients together and then strain them over ice.
  • Garnish Generously: A Piña Colada is not complete without a garnish. Try a pineapple wedge, a lime wedge, a maraschino cherry, or a combination of all three.

Notes:

  • If you don't have a blender, you can muddle the ingredients together and then strain them over ice.
  • You can adjust the sweetness of the Piña Colada by adding more or less simple syrup.
  • If you want a virgin Piña Colada, omit the rum.
