The Piña Colada, perhaps the most iconic tropical cocktail, has deep ties to the Caribbean. Stories claiming its origin include a nineteenth century pirate king, a luxury Puerto Rican hotel, and a Cuban non-alcoholic drink. Ultimately, in 1978, Puerto Rico proclaimed it as their official national drink.
Piña Colada translates in Spanish literally to ‘strained pineapple.’ It is a fruity-creamy slushy made with pineapple juice, rum, and coconut milk. Typically umbrella-clad, this cocktail has long stirred imaginations to faraway exotic beaches.
