Piña Coladas are the quintessential island vacation beverage for a very good reason: they’re sweet and creamy and something about them says relaxation. I adapted the beverage to be something that can be enjoyed any time of the day. Although coconut milk is high in calories, it is full of heart-healthy fats that will not clog arteries. It also contains vitamins B, C, and E, minerals and antioxidants. Pineapple juice is also great for you as it is full of vitamins C and B6, antioxidants, and is an energy booster and digestive aid.
