This is one pretty drink. It pours white on white with the crushed ice coming to the top.

The Pina Colada is a fabulous summer drink. Perfect for sitting in the backyard and sipping on a fine summer day.

What amazes me when I make these cocktails, is not only how easy they are to make (much less complicated that you’d think), but how much better these homemade drinks taste than what I order in a restaurant or bar. That’s kind of sad when you think of the upcharge (and profit) on alcoholic beverages when dining out, and the fact that they are made by professional bartenders! It just goes to show how terrible the liquid and powder mixes can be. I recently tossed all the ones we had in the house, and I am glad I did.

As always, drink responsibly and please don’t drink and drive.
