If you like piña coladas… get your blender ready because today (July 10) is National Piña Colada Day! What better way to spend the day then by sipping on a delicious piña colada and lazing the day away. Keep reading to learn how to make the most of your National Piña Colada Day and how to celebrate it in style!

 

First and foremost, this is National Piña Colada Day, so whip out your favorite piña colada recipe and stock up on ingredients! This standard recipe from Delish will make two servings of tasty piña colada for you to enjoy (or share)!

Ingredients

                              
  • 1 cup ice
  • 4 oz. spiced rum
  • 4 oz. coconut milk
  • 1/3 cup fresh pineapple
  • 1 splash of pineapple juice
  • 2 maraschino cherries

Place all your ingredients in a blender a blender, and blend until smooth. Pour into a glass and garnish with a cherry and a wedge of pineapple! Don’t forget some super festive drinkware—it really does make it taste that much better!

 

Now that the piña coladas are flowing, open your Bi-Fold, Multi-Slide, Lift and Slide, or French Swing Patio Doors and head out to the pool! Relax on a comfy lounge chair and let the sun kiss your skin. Make sure you apply plenty of sunscreen and are prepared with a sunhat and sunglasses. Float around the pool and sip down your delicious piña coladas before they melt in the hot July sun. If you have an outdoor kitchen, bring the blender and ingredients outside so you have easy access to refills whenever your cup goes dry!

 

Don’t forget the snacks! Drinking piña coladas and tanning in the sun all day is hard work and having tasty treats to snack on will give you the energy you need to keep the pool day going strong. You can’t go wrong with chips and lots of guacamole, which will have you feeling like you’re on a tropical Mexican vacation. Make sure you have plenty of snacks on hand to last the entire pool day.

 

You can’t adequately celebrate National Piña Colada Day without listening to Escape (The Piña Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes at least once or twice (or ten times)! Blast this song by the pool and sing-yell the lyrics as you savor your yummy drinks. This song cannot be overplayed, but on the off chance that your neighbors begin to complain, be sure there are some other fun summer hits on your party playlist!

 

Cheers to whomever invented this awesome holiday that gives us the perfect excuse to soak up the sun and drink piña coladas all day! Happy National Piña Colada Day!
