PINA COLADA

               I have had this cocktail two,three times and I just love this.The original recipe has white rum in it. Of course this is my Virgin version and we have the same(virgin pinacolada) in restaurants too Tongue. This cocktail has an awesome taste with the combination of pineapple and coconut flavor. And I know I have not done justice to the picture,I should have presented in a goblet rather than this ordinary glass…Hope you all will bear with me.

Once upon a time this used to be my favorite drink, virgin or the alcoholic one. I used to drink the pinacolada mix straight from the bottle (don't get scared - i did it with the non alcoholic version)
