Advice

• You can prepare more than 1 cocktail using double or triple the amount of ingredients.
• If you find the Piña Colada too thin after you grind it, add crushed ice and blend it again.

Warning

• When looking to buy coconut milk, you should buy products that are labeled "Coconut Milk" instead of "Coconut Water". These are two completely different products.
• Do not prepare more than 3 cups of Piña Colada at a time. Most grinders cannot grind the quantity of ingredients for 3 cups of Piña Colada so the ingredients will not mix well.
