Notes
- TIP: You can garnish your pina colada with a slice of pineapple or toasted coconut flakes. If using toasted coconut flakes, I would advise you to keep an eye on the pan during toasting, as coconut tends to burn very quickly. Once toasted, transfer the coconut flakes to a plate and allow them to cool. To decorate, dip the top of your glasses in water then dip into the toasted coconut. Freeze the glass so the decoration sets.
- Storage and making ahead
- This drink is best consumed immediately. Whenever I can, I try to serve my low-carb pina colada in chilled glasses, decorated with some toasted coconut flakes or sliced pineapple pieces. I do not recommend making the cocktail ahead as the creamy part tends to separate from the rest of the liquid in the drink.
