La Piña Colada no es dominicana, es Puerto Riqueña.
En cuanto a los ingredientes: No es leche de coco sino Crema de Coco lo que se le hecha al famoso coctel.

Hola Juan. Es cierto que la piña colada es de origen puertoriqueño, pero los dominicanos la hemos adoptado al igual que muchos otros platos. Sobre usar crema de coco, cada cocinero tiene su librito y yo particularmente encuentro la crema de coco muy pesada, si gustas puedes usar la crema en vez de la leche de coco.

umm I love pina colada. But these recipe is not a pina colada. And these is also a Puerto Rican drink. 2 oz light or spiced Puerto Rican rum, 5 oz pineapple juice, 1-1/2 cups of coco Lopez coconut cream, 1 cup ice, 1 maraschino cherry, 1 pineapple slice. In a blender, combine rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream and ice. Blend well at high speed. Pour into a collins glass and garnish with cherry and pineapple slice.
