NewsSharing Our Recipes Courtesy of Patricia Bolger PINA COLADA I have just returned from the Dominican, following a short vacation, so I have added a recipe here that will add a little “ray of sunshine” to your day! There is nothing like sipping on a tall frosty Pina Colada to glaze over your eyesight and put you in the mood to search on Google to find a warm tropical spot for a short get-a-way during those cold, dark winter days that are surely coming. I have to say, it will change your perspective and reset your internal clock to Island Time! |
