This Red White and Blue Pina Colada is such a great flavor combination that gets even better as the layers bleed together.  It has the classic Pina Colada flavors with the addition of strawberry and Blue Curacao.    

You won’t want to wait until Memorial Day or 4th of July for this one!   In fact, I think Friday night calls for a patriotic celebration in my house. 

This Red White and Blue Pina Colada is such a great flavor combination that gets even better as the layers bleed together.  Think classic Pina Colada flavors with strawberry and Blue Curacao!  You won’t want to wait until Memorial Day or 4th of July for this one!   In fact, I think Friday night calls for a patriotic celebration in my house. 

I went into a complete cocktail-making frenzy last weekend (don’t judge…my husband drank most of them)!  Anyhow, I think it began with a Skinny Margarita, followed by these Coladas, and ended with Pineapple Orange Creamsicle Mimosas (coming soon).  My cocktail indulgences were necessary after 2 consecutive weeks of no sleep due to a little tot that recently learned to jump out of her crib.  Hence, the feeling of having a newborn all over again….yikes!  Well, on the plus side at least I can drink now….LOL.

There is one true danger to drinking the Pina Colada…you run the risk of a constant stream of the, “If You Like Pina Coladas” song in your head.  This is a complete travesty for me…1)  I only know the title lyric of the song  2)  My husband also gets this annoying song stuck in his head.  This results in a household full of singers (kids included), singing the same five words over and  over again.  Oh blasted liquor cabinet…just talking about it is causing it to happen again! The only way to make this tolerable, is to go have a Red White and Blue Pina Colada right now.  Please keep sleeping baby girl!
