10TH OF JULY IS U.S NATIONAL PINA COLADA DAY


It is the story of Puerto Rico’s national drink
Ramón “Monchito” Marrero working in Caribe Hilton’s Beachcomber bar was entrusted with a new duty by the management. He had to formulate a signature drink for the bar that brings out the exotic flavours of the island. Ramón tried several mixes and finally succeeded in creating a classic drink. It took around 3 months of sheer hard work to formulate the first recipe of so called Piña Colada.
Believe it or not- There is a Piña Colada song written and recorded by British-born American singer Rupert Holmes in the year 1979.
