We all enjoy nice refreshing tutti fruity drinks, but if we can have a fresh pina colada in a topped coconut, that is the bomb! Close your eyes with me <- -> Now think about that hammock that you are lying in and the waitress wakes you up from a small nap handing you your fresh pina colada that you ordered. There is a slow breeze from the ocean and the sun is high up in the sky placing a wide shadow over you from the palm trees hanging above you. How would that taste? I am thinking it would be pretty damn good!
