Piña coladas, for me, are the drink that signifies summer more than any other. I have spent so many wonderful vacations sitting on the beach with one, they mean only good things. Up until this year I had never made them at home other than using one of the premade frozen cans. I saw this recipe and knew my days of the canned concoction were over. It takes very few ingredients to make this fabulous frozen drink and thankfully they are things that I have on hand almost all the time. Perfect, since I have no time for a real vacation this summer. Instead I just sit outside in the evening with one of these, close my eyes, and imagine really hard that I’m somewhere else. Okay, it doesn’t quite work, but at least the drink is darn good.
This is what summer nights should be.
