Pina Colada

Piña Colada is my favorite drink when I'm in the south. It tastes delicious of pineapple and coconut and can happily replace a dessert. Its origin was the bartender at the Hotel Caribe Hilton in Puerto Rico, Ricardo Garcia, who served it as early as 1954.

4 cl Bacardi white rum

2 cl pineapple juice

2 cl coconut milk

1/2 lime, juice only

Crushed ice

Pineapple for garnish

Pour crushed ice, pineapple juice, rum, coconut milk and lime into a blender and process for about 20 seconds.

Pour Piña Colada into a cooled glass and garnish with a slice of pineapple. I have added frozen pineapple cubes, to keep the drink good and cold in the summer heat.
