Master bartender note
When I close my eyes, I hear the song. 'If you like Piña Coladas..'. And I do! What a beautiful combination of rum, pineapple, cream, and of course Bols Coconut liqueur. This Piña Colada cocktail is definitely a one-way ticket to the tropics.
The Piña Colada is one of the most consumed cocktails in the world. It's therefore unsurprising that there are several different tales about the origins of this cocktail. The most generally accepted story begins with Ramón Marrero Pérez at the Beachcomber Bar in the Caribe Hilton Hotel in San Juan.
He claims to have created the cocktail on 15 August 1954, inspired by the tins of coconut cream that had just come on the market. The image of the Caribe Hilton Hotel as a luxury paradise helped to propel the Piña Colada to success in the years following.
