Notes

    • You can add a splash of heavy cream to the mixture in the blender for an even creamier drink, but it is thick and creamy as is.
    • We love using coconut rum, but you can substitute a spiced rum and/or add a float of dark rum, like Meyer’s, on top of the piña colada.
    • If you need to make drinks with and without alcohol, you can make a pitcher that is plain. Then, just add the rum on top for those who want it.
    • Do not substitute another coconut product for the cream of coconut. Cream of coconut is thick and heavily mixed with sugar to give you the signature sweet, tropical drink. Products like coconut milk or coconut cream are not the same and are unsweetened and thin.
