The Cut Classic Pina Colada

Our take on the perennially popular Puerto Rican cocktail: the Pina Colada. The traditional recipe is, of course, delicious, but it can pack a hefty calorific punch! The amount of strong rum and Cream of Coconut used determines just how high the calorie count is, but a 400 to 500 calorie Pina Colada would not be unusual!

The good news is that our recipe can reduce that figure by more than half! Here's the secret to a low calorie Pina Colada (approximately 190 calories) which still delivers the taste and refreshment you're looking for!

  • Cut Classic rum
