PIÑA COLADA, created in 1952 by Ramon Marrero Perez in the Caribe Hilton, Puerto Rico, is a famous rum cocktail. For the proper recipe you need rum, pineapple juice, lime juice and cream of coconut (not coconut cream), which I decided to make myself. And while at it I mixed some other cream of coconut cocktails: Creamy Coconut Margarita, Coconut Martini, Bushwacker drink and Lazy Piña colada.
