The Pina Colada is one of the most loved cocktails of the
world which is basically sweet in taste. It is made up of cream of coconut,
juice of pineapple, and rum, typically served with ice or blended with ice. The
glassware used to serve this cocktail is Poco grande. According to IBA
(International bartenders association), to make a traditional Pina Colada, you
have to shake one part of white rum, one part of cream of coconut, and 3 parts
of juice of pineapple together and garnish it with a slice of pineapple or a
cherry. And if you wish, you can garnish the drink with both the things. The
Pina Colada has been celebrated on the islands of Puerto Rico since 1978 on every
10th August.
The loveliness of the typical Pina Colada is that it is one
of the but cocktails in the history of the cocktails which flavors just as good
non alcoholic as it does with mixing liquor! Raspberry daiquiris are a close
second, nonetheless they do not knock off coconut and pineapple chilled juice
goodness with a wedge of pineapple or maraschino cherry on top.
And whilst I will not be taking my continually increasing
belly as well as swollen feet to Los Angeles this month end, I will be mixing a
batch of perfect Pina Coladas and enjoying in the chilling of our air
conditioner.
