How Do You Make a Piña Colada From Scratch? Rum! Light rum and (optionally) dark rum. For a drink that uses as much ice as a piña colada does, it’s a great idea to just grab a bag of ice from the store. You can find it in the mixer section of most grocery stores, along with tonic water and grenadine. For a true piña colada, you’ve just got to use Coco Lopez. The one & only! And no, you cannot substitute coconut milk for cream of coconut. And as for you, die hard cocktailers, you’ll want to get both the light rum AND dark rum! Here’s everything you’ll need to make this piña colada recipe:Ĭoco Lopez brand cream of coconut. If you’re planning to make yours a piña colada mocktail, just skip the rums! And if you’d like a drink that’s boozy but not super strong, go ahead and skip the dark rum.
#Painkiller drink vs pina colada how to#
One for how to make a rum-free, virgin piña colada (aka a piña colada mocktail!) and one for how to make a classic piña colada (aka one with quite a lot of rum!). Plus, this piña colada recipe is a two-for-one-we’ve got two methods listed in the recipe below. Stick to the ingredients called for-no swaps, please!-and you’ll end up with a truly perfect drink. Our piña colada recipe is classic, simple and made from super easy to find ingredients. It’s not complicated and (unlike so many classic cocktail recipes) it does not require multiple trips to the fanciest liquor store in town. That said, at its core, even the very best piña colada recipe is really quite basic. They mix up classic mid-century tiki drinks with the very freshest ingredients and attention to detail and, well, they really take these notoriously boozy cocktails to the next level. But a really creamy, frosty, frothy, ice cream-like piña colada with just the right balance of coconut, pineapple and rum? Yeah, we’ll take one of those just about anytime! Originally created at the Caribe Hilton in San Juan, Puerto Rico (where you can still enjoy the cocktail to this day) our piña colada recipe is inspired by the version of this classic tiki cocktail that is served up at the perpetually-packed Hale Pele in Portland, OR. Unfortunately, there are a lot of bad piña coladas in the world-watery piña coladas, or super sticky piña coladas-and those we turn down. But Piña Coladas? We Will Never Turn Down a Piña Colada! Getting Caught in the Rain Is Not Our Fave.
