    Origins of Pina Colada

    Pina Colada has been the national drink of Puerto Rico since 1978. It's a sweet cocktail made with rum, coconut milk, and pineapple juice, usually served either blended in a blender or shaken with ice.

    The name Pina Colada literally means "strained pineapple", a reference to the freshly pressed and strained pineapple juice. I'm imagining me on a Puerto Rican beach, being served freshly made drinks! I'm in! 🍍Thank goodness we don't have to strain fresh pineapples to make Pina Coladas. They sell pineapple juice in stores! 🤣

    How to Make Virgin Pina Colada

    This is a family friendly Virgin Pina Colada, which is alcohol free. You only need 3 ingredients to make Pina Coladas. Just throw them all into a blender and you're done! You only need to get the ratios right.

    • Pineapple Juice
    • Coconut Milk
    • Ice

    Not all pineapple juice is sweet, add sugar syrup to sweeten to taste. To make sugar syrup, boil 1 cup of sugar with 1 cup of water for 5 minutes and allow to cool. Add sugar to sweeten instead of syrup. Make sure the granules are fully dissolved before serving.

    Pina Colada Tips

    • For a creamier drink, use Coconut Cream instead of Coconut Milk
    • Add fresh strawberries to make Strawberry Pina Colada
    • Make classic Pina Colada by adding white rum (not kid friendly!)
    • Add canned crushed pineapple when blending for texture and flavor
    • Instead of sugar, try honey!
