A classic Piña Colada recipe served on the rocks, that's shaken NOT blended. Summertime is not complete without having at least one piña colada am I right? I've turned this classic frozen cocktail into a super quick blender-free version that's simple, classic and SO delicious!

Notes

*Freshly juiced pineapple is preferred but not a must. It is frothier and creamier and leads to a frothy and creamy pina colada.

*You can use more or less rum based on your preferred taste. Start with 1 cup and add more as needed. Malibu coconut rum is not as strong so I recommend adding more if using this.
