The Original Piña Colada image

I had a Piña Colada at the place of its origin in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico - Barrachina Restaurant. This is actually the exact recipe that I got from the restaurant for the original Pina Colada. It is recommended that you use Bacardi rum as it is from Puerto Rico as well (we visited the distilllery that same day). I did not include the freezing time. Enjoy!

Time 10m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

48 ounces pineapple juice
15 ounces coconut cream (Coco Lopez or Goya brand)
10 ounces water (if you use ice in a blender, do not add water)
bacardi rum
cherry and pineapple chunk (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Our little secret, do not mix blend with ice, instead freeze the mix stirring occasionaly until well frozen or use an old style ice cream maker to freeze the mix, then you will get the taste of a good piña colada.
  • Pour rum to taste in individual glasses then add frozen mix to serve.
  • Decorate with cherry and pineapple chunks to garnish (optional).
