Piña colada

It rained quite a bit today, so we decided to go shopping and to try the famous Piña colada, and in case you don't know this; "The earliest known story states that in the 1800s, Puerto Rican pirate Roberto Cofresí (a.k.a. "El Pirata Cofresí"), to boost his crew's morale he gave them a beverage or cocktail that contained coconut, pineapple and white rum. This was what would be later known as the famous piña colada. With his death in 1825, the recipe for the piña colada was lost.

Barrachina, a restaurant in Puerto Rico, also claims to be the birth place of the piña colada"


Aiken couldn't get enough!
