Hey Guys little mistake on the recipe screen for Garrett’s version. Use 1/4 tsp of Xanthan gum. NOT 1 tsp!!!!

Possible I missed something but it looks like you said 1½oz coconut syrup, ½ oz adjusted pineapple but then the recipe card says the opposite. I'm assuming the card is right here, may try this this weekend!

In pursuit of the perfect Pina Colada ... only a few cocktails are worthy of a herculean effort to craft perfection. The Pina Colada is one of them. Well done Leandro.

@RangerPunisher 8 месяцев назад

Good video but wrong information on the 'original' recipe. The original rum used in the Piña Colada wasn't a white rum, much less Bacardi. The original rum used was Don Q Gold. Maybe you should try it with that. Don Q is the #1 puertorican rum. And like Garret said, a great upgrade would be using Don Q Reserva 7. Cheers! 🇵🇷🍹

@bethereagainproductions6534 7 месяцев назад

I've experimented trying ~20 different rums mixed individually with pineapple juice. Never have tried the Don Q Gold but the best rum I've found - without adding too much character to the drink and thereby changing its essence from the original recipe as what commonly happens with long-aged rums - is Cruzan gold (technically Cruzan Aged Dark Rum). The standout benefit of that Cruzan is a buttery texture. The Don Q is said to be a blend of rums aged 1 1/2 to 5 years. The Cruzan is said to be a blend of rums aged 2 to 4 years, so pretty similar. I *have* tried the Don Q *Cristal* (also aged 1 1/2 to 5 years) in pineapple and found that Cruzan superior by a good degree.

@lewismaclean8849 8 месяцев назад

Another amazing video, definitely going to add your take on this drink to my collection. Also, I recall that one of your most recent videos of the best cocktails of the year, there was a Rum Old Fashioned that looked absolutely amazing. My question is could you take the three Rums used in the Old Fashioned and use it in a piña colada or a Mai Tai? Would love to know some drinks that use the same ingredients so I can use it for multiple things. Keep up the amazing work Leandro.

I support your decision to change the name from cream of coconut to coconut syrup!! Omg, I constantly get confused as to which one is cream of coconut and which one is coconut cream. They are very different ingredients, but the names are too similar and it's easy to mix them up. Btw- I loved this video! I'm a huge fan of blender drinks, especially the pina colada. I enjoy making it at home and changing up the recipe every so often. It's a constantly evolving drink that has no perfect or ideal recipe (in my opinion).

@pavkey88 8 месяцев назад

Yay! Another acid adjusted drink! I can’t go back to drinking pineapple juice cocktails without adjusting first, definitely going to try this. By the way, my new favorite drink (non-frozen) is the acid adjusted pineapple daiquiri. Yo anyone trying to acid adjusted their cocktails, it’s VERY important to get the measurements as close to accurate as possible, it makes a world of difference

@LunchBreakAngler 8 месяцев назад

I have always made my colada as a shaken cocktail with 20ml cream and 40ml whole milk, coconut syrup, pinapplejuice, jamaican rum. Its easy to make at home as well as behind the bar, but i definitely have to try it with the citrus adjusted juice and perhaps some angostura! I find that the colada is a good template, such as the daquiri and margarita is as well

Agreed on the Trader Joe's pineapple juice! I am blessed with a farmer's market near me that cold-presses their own pineapple juice, but supply is sporadic as it is very popular and they don't make it every day. I was making Kainpillers for a gathering one day and they were clean out, I happened to go to Trader Joe's next, saw the juice and figured it was a step up from Dole and bought several of the small bottles. Eureka! It was every bit as good as the cold-pressed stuff fresh from the market, perfect for cocktails.

@gregsoucie 8 месяцев назад

I used to like a Pina Colada. But since getting into cocktails a little more seriously, I'd kind of dismissed the drink. Will definitely revisit this iteration.

@Stephen_Curtin 8 месяцев назад

Am I alone in thinking that the piña colada doesn't need to be a balanced drink. I mean if you want something balanced you've got tons of other options. To me the piña colada is supposed to be a sweet drink that you occasionally indulge in when you're in the mood for that kind of thing.

@Mezcaudill 8 месяцев назад

I see where you’re coming from. My dilemma is that I love pina coladas but because they’re so sweet and fatty made the traditional way I rarely ever make them. So the way that I see it is that having multiple variations allows me to have a drink that I really enjoy more often depending on what I’m looking for. Plus knowing about the xantham gum trick really helps for people that hate when their drinks separate. Even a standard pina colada recipe has some variation in the ratios or ingredients.

@Stephen_Curtin 8 месяцев назад

@Mezcaudill that's a fair point. I'm not really a lover of the piña colada so usually I only make them when others ask me for one.

@Torso6131 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, I think I'm in the mood for a pina colada about once a year. Otherwise I'm generally just slamming down Painkillers for a more balanced, but similar drink. Still want to try this though.

@lars5174 Месяц назад

You might laugh at me but my favorite Piña Colada uses Coconut Milk, Coconut Rum (I like the Ray & Nephews one but you could even go for Malibu if you're not a snob), a float of OFTD and fresh pineapple juice. It does absolutely not need acidity. It's meant to be sweet. Don't be scared of sweet. It's ok you're still manly. 😂

Is coconut syrup not different to coconut cream? And is coconut cream and cream of coconut not the same thing? I don't know the exact difference but coconut cream has more body to it whereas coconut syrup is straight up infused syrup

@Stephen_Curtin 8 месяцев назад

The difference between coconut cream and cream of coconut is that the latter has added sugar. Leandro has made the point before that these two are easily confused, and so he prefers to call the one with added sugar coconut syrup rather than cream of coconut.

Understanding that we are talking about personal preferences here, I am going to pass on these iterations. A tropical fruit drink in my opinion should be leaning towards sweet.

Also, I use the dark rum as a pour over.

Xanthum gum is bad for the gut microbiome and induces excess gut inflammation. Xanthum gum is now so prevalent in our food, that it is being consumed at levels not anticipated when approved by the FDA, which is leading to excess consumption and greater gut inflammation. It is also a relatively new food additive with unstudied history that is now becoming more clear. Keep up the great content, as a home bartender, you have upped my cocktail game and appreciation immensely.

@spacecoyote6101 8 месяцев назад

I like the idea to ‘water down’ the cream of coconut using coconut milk, but it also seems wasteful. Wouldn’t it be better to just use the coconut milk to make a less sweet cream of coconut to begin with? That way you’re not stuck with 2 separate ingredients most people won’t get through.
