Piña Colada is a revitalizing and delicious summertime drink from Puerto Rico. The name Piña Colada literally means "strained pineapple," referring to the freshly squeezed pineapple juice used as one of the main ingredients.
Other than pineapple juice, Piña Coladas also contains white rum, cream of coconut, and ice. They are typically served blended or shaken and garnished with a cherry and a slice of pineapple.
Piña Coladas are not only delicious, but they are also relatively healthy, as they are made with natural ingredients and do not contain any artificial flavors or colors. Whether you enjoy them poolside or at the beach, Piña Coladas are the perfect drink to sip on all summer long.
