About the Piña Colada Slush
Usually credited to the Caribe Hilton in San Juan in 1954, the Piña Colada has been Puerto Rico's official drink since 1978. Use sweetened cream of coconut: it supplies most of the sugar the slush needs.
Missing something?
- No White Rum? Use Gold Rum (A little richer)
- No White Rum? Use Cachaça (Grassier and funkier)
- No Coconut Cream? Use Cream (Loses the coconut flavour)
- No Pineapple Juice? Use Pineapple (Blend fresh pineapple and strain it; it foams just as well)
