Premium Ready-to-Drink Coppa Cocktails (Pina Colada)

Product Information

You can use either pineapple juice or fresh pineapple – I’m providing two variations of the recipe below. I don’t like lots of ice in my drink, I find it dilutes its flavor. I’m using 15 small ice cubes per 1 large drink. Depending on the preparation method you’ll need whole ice cubes or crushed ice. You can make crushed ice yourself. Making the drink with store-bought pineapple juice is easier than with fresh pineapple. It requires less work (peeling and chopping the pineapple), you can also enjoy the drink right away (the fresh pineapple needs to be frozen first). If you want to use white rum instead of coconut rum it’s better to use cream of coconut (coconut flavor + more sugar) or just add simple syrup to the drink to sweeten it (combine equal amount of sugar and water, cook until sugar is dissolved then leave to cool). 4. Ice If you prefer a more mellow drink, TWISST Pina Colada offers a tantalizing combination of smooth coconut and fruity pineapple. Nutritional Information:

So, popping the tab on a can and taking a swig might seem like a far cry from thattropical escape. But with ready-to-drink (RTD) versions of piña coladas rising in popularity this summer, distillers are using science and getting creative when making the next best thing.

This is the ingredient that causes the most confusion. Most recipes call for cream of coconut, but I used coconut milk. Now I will talk a little bit about the ingredients. Original Piña Colada recipe consists of only 4 ingredients: pineapple juice, white rum, cream of coconut, and ice. It would be hard for someone to smell and taste the piña colada and not be instantly transported to a vacation,” Conley says. “There is something about that feeling you get when you take a sip of a tropical drink that transports you from the mundane to an exotic escape.” PROPORTIONS FOR THE DRINK ARE: 3-2-1 (3 parts pineapple juice – 2 parts coconut rum – 1 part coconut milk) + sugar to sweeten (to taste) + a little lime juice to taste. If you are planning on having a drink or two yourself with one other person, single-serving cans or smaller bottles work well. For multiple people, grab a larger bottle to mix up a big batch in the blender. Keep in mind, however, that some brands are more concentrated than others: A single drink might call for 4 ounces of mix, or it might only need an ounce or two. It makes the most sense to think of the size in terms of number of servings the mix can make rather than the number of ounces in the bottle.

From the recipe below you’ll have 1 large drink – an amount that will fill a large Hurricane glass (pictured). How to serve Pina Colada: in a tulip / Hurricane / highball glass. You can decorate the glas with pineapple wedges / leaves and a maraschino cherry. To make Pina Colada with fresh pineapple: peel and core the pineapple, freeze 1-inch (2.5 cm) pineapple flesh chunks. You will need 7 for one large drink (pictured).

ENJOY THE DRINK CHILLED: AT PARTIES, EVENTS OR EVEN WITH A MEAL, WITH FRIENDS. THIS DRINK IS SUITABLE FOR EVERY OCCASION.Use canned full-fat coconut milk and shake it before opening (do not use: coconut drink, coconut water, coconut cream). If your coconut milk is separated and won’t come together despite shaking with the can, try to warm the milk up, just slightly. Whisk until the coconut milk is smooth and take the pot immediately off the heat. The original recipe calls for white rum. I used coconut rum (Malibu) to incorporate intense coconut flavor. Some recipes also call for golden rum. I find white rum more suitable as it tastes more neutral. Golden rum or any aged rum could be too bold-tasting for this drink. The typical piña coladausually involves a plastic cup on a beach, beads of condensation falling down the side, a wedge of pineapple perched at the top, and the feel of coconut-flavored ice crunching between your teeth. My perfect Piña Colada recipe is refreshing, not too sweet, and tastes distinctly like coconut and pineapple. I’ve tested many drink variations and below I will explain which ingredients I’ve chosen and why. 1. Pineapple
