Ever wonder why the Piña Coladas you make at home taste nothing like the ones served at your favorite tropical destination? Most recipes simplify the colada into a mixture of rum, pineapples & ice with a splash of coconut milk. A flavorful Piña Colada has two kinds of rum (light and dark), cream and even bitters added which make the concoction a true tropical delight. Use high quality Puerto Rican rum in this recipe for the best result. Enjoy!

I gotta say that this was really good! Here it is, 10:00 PM, I was sitting thinking about my Jamaican vacation, and how depressed I was that's it has been a while, then I made a whole blender full, put the contents into my 64 ounce thermal mug, and maybe because it's kickin in, but I feel a lot better right now. Thank you and no problem mon!

    My husband was looking for a good pina colada recipe so I found this one for him. We had all the ingredients on hand except for the bitters. He made a whole pitcher of this. The key is the coconut cream (which I can actually drink on it's own it's that good). He will definitly be making this again and again. Thanks for the great recipe NcMystery!

    Exactly how a pina colada should taste! With one sip you are taken to the tropics for a mini taste vacation! I made this without ice, however blended with the ice would be equally refreshing. Thanks so much for another wonderful beverage recipe, NCMysterShopper!
