Piña Colada Cocktail

The Pina Colada was invented in Puerto Rico in the 1950s… the original recipe includes fresh cream and a very light Puerto Rican rum in the cocktail… Needless to say, the first aromas are a slight taste of coconut and lots of pineapple, ultimately leaving little room for the aromas of sugar cane. At Colada, we still find that a shame and that's why we called on one of the best Tiki bartenders in the world, the famous Guillaume Leblanc, who works as a bar manager at Dirty Dick in Paris, a famous Tiki stronghold.

In its original version, the pina colada may seem heavy, because of its very greasy coconut cream and the fresh cream not there to lighten the cocktail. As good rum lovers that we are… -otherwise what the hell are you doing on the excellencerhum blog?-, we want to smell the rum, embrace its warmth! Friend Leblanc has therefore designed a Pina Colada recipe for Colada, certainly far from the original spirit but which will make you fall in love with coconut and pineapple, to the point of almost making you want to drop everything and leave. on the islands...
