This is the same concept as the Piña Verde.The Branca Menta in this drink will add mintiness which is a nice choice although that is probably up to taste. The presence of lime (in that drink) improves that (and other) Piña Coladas so I would keep that. The Coco López is the traditional choice but I like the combination of CC and CL (although I would swap the proportions).
