• Add rum, pineapple juice, cream of coconut and ice to blender. Blend until smooth and frosty; add more ice as necessary. Pour into tall glasses and garnish with pineapple slices and maraschino cherries (and paper umbrellas, if you have them).

SPICED PIñA COLADAS

Steps:

• Combine the rum, vanilla bean, allspice and peppercorns in a 64-ounce jar. Shake well and store out of the sunlight for 3 days, shaking once a day if possible.
• Strain the rum, discarding the peppercorns and allspice (the vanilla bean can be saved and reused). Return the spiced rum to the jar and add the pineapple juice and lime juice. Put the coconut milk and cream of coconut in a blender and blend until smooth and thick. Pour into the jar and add the bitters. Stir or shake well to combine. Refrigerate until cold, at least 3 hours or up to 3 days.
• To serve, shake the jar again (the drink will naturally separate). Pour into glasses filled with ice and garnish with lime slices.

Steps:

• Blend ingredients until smooth and frosty.
• Pour into tall, chilled glasses and garnish with pineapple slices, maraschino cherries (and paper umbrellas, if you've got 'em).

VIRGIN PIñA COLADA

Steps:

• To make a mock rum syrup, put the dark brown muscovado sugar and 200ml water in a saucepan, stir well and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved. Add a few strips of skin from the pineapple, add the black peppercorns, cloves and a cinnamon stick, then bring to the boil. Turn off the heat and leave to infuse until cold. Strain into a jug and set aside in the fridge until needed. Will keep for up to three days.
• Pour the pineapple juice into a tall glass, and add the coconut milk and lime juice. Stir gently. Fill up the glass with a handful ice then slowly add 25ml of the syrup so it sinks to the bottom. Garnish with pineapple leaves and a tinned cherry.

• Note: This recipe is my adaptation of "The Authentic Piña Colada" printed on back of the Coco Lopez Real Cream of Coconut® can, which is the same as this but uses all (3 ounces) regular rum only ~ It's a great drink but I just love the inclusion of part coconut rum to make it even better!
