Notes

You may want to add an extra scoop of ice-cream if required, to increase the thickness of the drink.  

Coconut isn’t among my favourites, not at least in my drinks and hence I’d be truthful in admitting that Pina Colada would be my choice only on a sunny day on a beach with my lady friends.   However, for those who swear by the nutty fruit, this would be a dreamy sensation.  

Coconut Pina Colada is a cocktail for coconut and pineapple enthusiasts.
