Happy National Pina Colada Day! | The Lounge Lizards

About The Lounge Lizards

Craig Schrolucke and Alexis Larsen are good buddies who love a trendy hot spot as much as they do a worn out hole in the wall provided the service is as good as the items being served up. They also love bar talk and all that it entails and are more than happy to belly up to this bar blog and do just that.

Happy National Pina Colada Day!

By alarsen | Thursday, July 10, 2008, 08:00 AM

Pineapple + coconut + rum = refreshing tropical genius …

Conjuring up images of the tropics and clear blue waters, the Pina Colada isn’t for everyday, but on July 10 it’s a must. Why? Thursday, July 10 is National Pina Colada Day. To celebrate here are a couple of recipes and photos courtesy of Mount Gay Rum. Cheers!

The Ultimate Colada

Ingredients: 1 oz. Mount Gay Eclipse Silver Rum, 1 oz. Pineapple juice, 2 oz. cream of coconut, 1 oz. light cream

Directions: Blend over ice, garnish with cherry and pineapple wedge.

The Skinny Pina Colada

Ingredients: 1 oz. Pineapple juice, 1/2 oz. Kalani coconut liqueur, 1 1/2 oz. Mount Gay Eclipse Silver Rum

Directions: In a mixing glass add all ingredients, add ice, shake and strain over fresh ice into a highball glass. Garnish with pineapple wedge.

Amelia's Bistro, Bellbrook, restaurant review [review]

Call it comfort food, gourmet style.
