CARIBE HILTON'S PIñA COLADA
It seems unimaginable that a drink as crowd-pleasing as the piña colada would inspire fierce debate. But to this day, no one can agree on the cocktail's exact origin - or even how to make it! The first theory involves the pirate Roberto Cofresí, who supposedly invented the drink to keep his sailors happy and prevent mutiny. Others swear it came from the bar at the Old San Juan restaurant Barrachina. But the most popular story traces the idea to the Caribe Hilton, where bartender Ramón "Monchito" Marrero supposedly created it in the ʼ50s as a family-friendly nonalcoholic drink. Back then, blenders weren't common, so the first piña coladas were made in a cocktail shaker. Marrero eventually added rum, and the recipe was later revised for blenders (see below). Try that version, or use a cocktail shaker and serve the drink over ice to get a real taste of the original!

CARNIVAL COLADA
For most of the year, Arnaud's is known for churning out more French 75s than any other spot in the city. But during the weeks preceding Mardi Gras, people start buzzing about this festive purple drink instead. It gets its vibrant color from cachaça infused with butterfly pea flower, a brightly hued mild-tasting herb. -Nora Horvath for Food Network Magazine

PIñA COLADA
The piña colada, which originated in Puerto Rico, is an irresistible classic, and an occasion to pull out paper umbrellas - a tiki-culture addition. Just beware of brain freeze.

PERFECT PINA COLADA CAKE
This cake is so light & moist and has so much flavor. It's really delightful. I got it from a cookbook back in 1985 that was comprised of everybodies favorites. This was my mom's all time favorite cake. You may have trouble finding coconut cream pudding, so you can sub with vanilla pudding.
