Making Pina Colada Bites

1. Prepare the pineapple. First, she cuts the pineapple into approximately 1-inch rounds. Then, she removes the core and slices it into triangles.
   
   
2. Add the booze! She places her triangles into a baking dish and pierces the fruit with a toothpick. Then, she adds a blend of Myers and Malibu rum and coconut cream. Once they’re soaking, they’re placed in the refrigerator to set.
   
   
3. Roll in toasted coconut. After draining off the liquid, she rolls each pineapple wedge in toasted coconut, then places a maraschino cherry on top and skewers it all together with a paper umbrella. How cute is that?

If you’re like me and hate to waste anything, you can use that leftover rum to make yourself a frozen pina colada . Depending on how much you have remaining, add this mix to a blender, along with a little more coconut cream, pineapple juice, and ice. You can even garnish your frozen drinks with one of the boozy pineapple wedges. I don’t know about you, but I think that’s the perfect way to make the most of everything!

Even in the middle of the city, the flavors of pineapple, coconut, and rum can make it seem like we’re sitting on a Caribbean island. So, if you’re unable to get away this summer, you can invite a few friends over and pretend you’re all away on vacation. On the bright side, you won’t have to worry about a crowded airport, flight delays, or packing your bags.
