Best White Sangria Recipe
Best White Sangria Recipe Are you looking for a simple sangria recipe for a crowd? No matter how you make your sangria, you will want to add as much fruit as possible. This post...
Piña Colada is one of my favorite Summer recipes. Make it without alcohol to have a drink all the family can enjoy or boost it up with some rum for a grown up cocktail that's the perfect addition to a BBQ or poolside party.
What I really like about it is that it tastes like if it was made by a bartender of a hip Caribbean resort but it's actually easy and foolproof to make. You can make a lot to share or make just a glass to drink after a hard (and hot) day at work. You can also tweak the ingredients to fit what you have on hand, but truth to be told the best way to enjoy it is following the recipe.
My secret to making it so creamy is using frozen and diced pineapple. You have two options here, option 1 is dicing fresh pineapple and freezing it beforehand. This is great if you are into using only fresh ingredients. However if you are a bootstrapped parent that prefers to enjoy the food rather than spend time cooking it (I feel you bro) you can go with the prepackaged pineapple that's available in the frozen aisle of most supermarkets.
Same with pineapple juice, you can buy it canned or make your own blending fresh pineapple with water. I usually prefer to buy the canned one since it gives the Piña Colada a flavor and consistency more similar to the one that's served at bars.
To keep it boozy I add 2 ounces of dark rum. While you can make the Piña Colada with white or dark rum I prefer to go with the aged one. The rum flavor shines trough the recipe which in my opinion is what makes a cocktail a good one.
Pineapple and coconut are such a delightful mixture.
I could use one or two of these right now. I have never thought of using frozen pineapple before.
Rum and pineapple are so amazing together. Rum and any fruit is an amazing combo, really. Thanks for sharing this!
I’ve been obsessing over pineapples lately so this pina colada recipe could not have come at a better time. It looks DELICIOUS!
I love a good Pina Colada. I always get them when I go out for Mexican.

I’m guilty of the pre packaged pineapple! But pinas are one of my favorite frozen drinks.
This is chilling good for summer! I like the fact that we can do it without alcohol, all the more fun to spread the love with anyone!
I just bought some pineapple earlier. I am going to try your recipe.

Looking at this makes me feel like I’m on vacation! I don’t drink, but the flavors still feel like I should be somewhere tropical.

I love this post. I have several PC recipes up my sleeve for summer I’ll have to share. It’s been my favorite drink for 30 years.
Oh yum! That looks super delish and very refreshing….love to make smoothies this time of year using fruits that are in season. Definitely gonna make this when I go to Guatemala in July there are pineapples on every corner for sale over there…
