Recipe Tips and FAQs
- Don't Overblend - this will result in watery Piña Colada, keep the texture right
- Canned Pineapple - instead of frozen or fresh Pineapple, use Canned Pineapple for a budget friendly drink
- Substitute Pineapple Juice - try Mango Juice, Orange Juice, or Five Alive
- Fresh Lime - squeeze a fresh Lime to brighten up the flavors
- Frozen Fruit - this can replace the ice for a thick texture
Origins of Pina Colada
Piña Colada is the national drink of Puerto Rico since 1978. A sweet cocktail made with Rum, Coconut Milk, and Pineapple Juice, usually served either blended in a blender or shaken with ice. The name Piña Colada literally means "strained pineapple", a reference to the freshly pressed and strained pineapple juice.
Can I Make This Without a Blender?
Yes! Just use Pineapple Juice without Pineapple Chunks, and shake ingredients together in a Cocktail Shaker.
How To Make Sugar Syrup for Piña Colada
It's easy making homemade Sugary Syrup to sweeten Piña Colada. Boil 1 cup of Sugar with 1 cup of Water for 5 minutes and allow to cool. Make sure the granules are fully dissolved before serving. If you can't make Sugar Syrup, mix in White Sugar dissolved in Pineapple Juice to sweeten your drink.
