A bit ago I wanted to have a super fresh piña colada but I wanted to make it a twist more interesting. I read in the “Flavor Thesaurus” that pineapple pairs well with cilantro, so I tried it! (PS– check out my article on how to make tiki mugs from clay.)

- 1 small bunch of cilantro

To make the drink, muddle the cilantro with liquid ingredients and shake. Pour over crushed ice and garnish with a chunk of fresh pineapple, cilantro, and the coconut shavings. ++ Rum always tastes better in a tiki mug. 🙂
