The pina colada has to be the quintessential beachfront, pool-side, summertime drink! \u00a0Did you know this delicious drink originated in my home island of Puerto Rico? \u00a0The first pina colada ever served was in August of 1954, at the Caribe Hilton Hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico. \u00a0Every time I have a pina colada, I think of Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n
Although everyone makes their own version, my favorite is my Titi Cynthia\u2019s Pina Colada. \u00a0She has been making these for me for years now, and our yearly summer trips to her house aren\u2019t complete until she\u2019s made us a fresh batch! \u00a0It\u2019s so simple to make, and I love the pure fruity-coconut taste that you get from chilling the mix until the flavors come out. \u00a0On our recent trip to her house, I asked her to make these for me so I could share it with all of you. \u00a0Because she is the coolest aunt in the world, she agreed. \u00a0Here is her recipe for the perfect family-friendly Pina Colada!<\/p>\n
Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- 46-oz. Pineapple Juice<\/li>\n
- 15-oz. Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut<\/li>\n
- Ice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Instructions:<\/strong><\/div>\nIn a large pitcher, mix the pineapple juice and cream of coconut with a large spoon. \u00a0Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight to let the flavors develop.<\/div>\n
In a blender, blend about 3 cups of ice. \u00a0Add the cold pineapple-coconut mix, and blend until smooth.<\/div>\n
Serve immediately, and enjoy!<\/div>\n
Makes 12-15 servings.<\/div>\n
