This famous cocktail is the official drink of Puerto Rico, and is associated with picture-perfect images of holidays in the sun, and white sandy beaches.
Whilst this popular drink may bring back blissful memories of beach bars, the history of the Pina Colada is far more sinister than meets the eye, as it is often referred to as the 'Pirate cocktail’ by Islanders, on account of pirates plying their crew with copious amounts of rum, pineapple and coconut in an attempt to boost morale in what was very poor conditions on board ships in the late 1800’s.
With it’s roots in piracy, the Pina Colada became mainstream in the 1950’s, when the Caribe Hilton Hotel in Peurto Rico created the modern Pina Colada, comprised of white run, pineapple juice, lime and coconut cream. The unique creamy Pina Colada soon gained popularity, catching the eye of bars along the East Coast of America, before quickly spreading across the entire world.
