Best Ever Piña Colada
What I love about this Piña colada recipe is that there’s no need for any added sugar other than frozen fruit. Natural sugars from the pineapple and coconut will leave this homemade piña colada so refreshing and delicious.
Piña Colada Main Ingredients
We wanted to use as whole of ingredients as possible in this piña colada recipe, which I why there is no juice or ice involved.
What rum is best for piña coladas?
The best kind of rum for a piña colada is white rum. But, if all you have is spiced rum or coconut rum, that works too! Here are some of our favorite brands:
- Bacardi
- Skaalvenn (MN-based!)
- Captain Morgan
