Upgraded to 5 stars. I've been making this drink for wife and friends while in Hawaii, and it's a hit. Very tasty.

Great Pina Colada variation! Make this one for people who think Tiki drinks are all just sugary dessert.

  • Love this combination. Tested with a few different rums, but the Smith & Cross came out the best. It really lets the Cynar shine.
  • Used Averna instead of Cynar. Relatively sweet. Might lower the orgeat.
  • Dominated by bitterness and sweetness. Odd but not in an intriguing way.
  • Made to the original spec, with pistachio orgeat. Quite liked this, a nice finish. Pineapple flavors along with the expected burnt sugar and bitter. — ★★★★
