Pina Colada - Coconut Fantasy

Soul of Latin

 There is drink known to be the same, which was mixed by pirates to boost their morale. The legend says that when the pineapple juice was poured into coconut with white rum, it went so far to the point of no return and inventing one of the best cocktails was inevitable. Sadly, they did not write the recipe.

 Long time passed since they re-invented the cocktail. A bartender in Buenos Aires told the world how to make pina colada, he mixed coconut cream, pineapple juice, rum and crushed ice in a blender. The result was trustworthy compared with the legend known about the forgotten cocktail.

 I do not say you have to blend it. It is matter of choice or , in my view, reliability. Go with the technique you are comfortable with, or leave the final word to your drinkers. So which one you choose?
