We show you how to shake up your own version of this frosty, creamy rum-inspired concoction and bring a slice of summer into your home.
National Pina Colada Day takes place tomorrow (July 10) and that calls for one thing – delicious frozen cocktails to toast the occasion.
Made with pineapple juice, rum and coconut cream, the exotic Pina Colada is one of the most popular drinks on beaches and islands galore, and is the go-to holiday drink.
While many of us have had to cancel or postpone summer 2020 holiday plans, what better way to bring some Caribbean flavour into your home than with this tasty drink.
Add a cute umbrella or stick a funky stirrer in your drink to really embrace those summer holiday vibes.
First created in Puerto Rico in 1954, the cocktail can be made with blended ice to be enjoyed as a slush, or shaken with ice, however it is recommended to be served in a Poco Grande glass, also known as a hurricane glass.
