Frozen Piña Coladas are the perfect summer cocktail. They are refreshing, take the edge off after a long day, and will cool you off in a flash! This recipe is perfect because it is so easy, and you are likely to have most of the ingredients in your home bar. If you can’t get to the beach, why not bring the flavour to your house instead?
Summer weather is here and I long to be on the beach. Toes in the sand, the sun on my face, lying on a beach towel, and the sound of the sea in my ears! Unfortunately, whisking the family away to the beach isn’t likely to happen in the immediate future. So, I decided to perfect my frozen Piña Colada game. If I can’t go to the beach, there is no rule that says we can’t bring the flavour of the beach to our homes. This recipe does just that. I know you are going to love how easy this recipe is to make. If you don’t have the ingredients on hand, you will want to stock up! This frozen Piña Colada recipe just might become your go to cocktail all summer long!
What to Serve with Frozen Pina Coladas
When I serve Piña Coladas as an afternoon cocktail, I like to serve an easy appetizer like sheet pan nachos. When I serve frozen Piña Coladas with dinner, I aim for something like spicy shrimp or salmon or even chicken fajitas to compliment the tropical flavours. No matter how you serve it, I am sure you will love this recipe as much as I do!

This recipe does take about 3 hours from start to finish, so keep that in mind when you are ready to prepare this cocktail.
