Origins of the recipe

First created in Puerto Rico, piña colada means strained pineapple in Spanish.

The traditional cocktail calls for light rum, coconut cream, and pineapple juice blended or shaken with ice then poured into a Poco Grande glass.

It is the perfect choice for breakfast, snack time, post workout, or happy hour.
