🍹 What Is a Baileys Colada?
The classic piña colada is known for its tropical blend of rum, pineapple juice, and coconut cream. This version adds a luxurious twist with Baileys Irish Cream, giving the drink a velvety richness and a hint of chocolatey warmth.

It’s like sipping a coconut cream pie on vacation—with a buzz!

🌴 Ingredients (Makes 1 Serving)
2 oz white rum

2 oz Baileys Irish Cream

1 oz pineapple juice (fresh or canned)

1 oz coconut cream (like Coco López or cream of coconut)

1 cup crushed ice

Optional Garnish:
Pineapple wedge

Maraschino cherry

🧊 How to Make the Frozen Baileys Colada
1. Blend the Cocktail
In a high-speed blender, combine:

White rum

Baileys Irish Cream

Pineapple juice

Coconut cream

Crushed ice

Blend until completely smooth and slushy.

Pro Tip: For an extra tropical vibe, toss in a few frozen pineapple chunks for a thicker texture and fruit-forward flavor.

2. Check the Texture
The consistency should be thick and frosty. If it’s too thin, just add more ice. Too thick? A splash of pineapple juice will loosen it up.

3. Serve in Style
Pour the drink into a chilled hurricane glass, coupe, or your favorite tropical glass.

4. Garnish for Flair
Top with a pineapple wedge and maraschino cherry for that beach-bar aesthetic.

Showstopper: It’s a guaranteed conversation starter at parties or summer gatherings.

💡 Variations & Tips
1. Make It Non-Alcoholic:
Omit the rum and Baileys and substitute with coconut milk and a splash of cream or chocolate syrup for a kid-friendly tropical milkshake.

2. Add a Frozen Twist:
Use frozen pineapple chunks instead of ice for an even smoother texture and bolder flavor.

3. Spice It Up:
Add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to complement the Baileys and deepen the flavor.

4. Boozier Upgrade:
Swap white rum for dark rum for a stronger, more caramel-like finish.
